Re: urxvt terminal change the way it looks

I'm able to play with urxvt but can't seem to change dark blue dir selection.
see attached.

My problem is changing directory listing (dark blue) to something brighter?
Can't see Dark Blue (dirs) in Urxvt.

Using fossapup64. Linux 5.4.53

Maybe manual edits of .Xdefaults file?
