What is the best way to change the color of the entire table of contents. I saw a lot of tutorials but it's complicated for me (I am a beginner).

If I understand your objective correctly, you wish to change the color that's used for all elements of the Table of Contents; these include, presumably, the title of the ToC.
To do so, you could load the xcolor
package and insert the instruction \color{blue}
-- or whatever color you wish to apply -- before \tableofcontents
. To limit the scope of the \color
instruction, encase it and the material it's supposed to apply to in a set of \begingroup
and \endgroup
statements.
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{xcolor} %% http://www.ctan.org/pkg/xcolor
\begin{document}
\begingroup % start a TeX group
\color{blue}% or whatever color you wish to use
\tableofcontents
\endgroup % end of TeX group
\section{A}
\section{B}
\end{document}
xcolor
package (with optionssvgnames
andx11names
, if your want to call colours by their names rather than their rgb or cmyk codes) and write in the body of your document:{\color{your_best_loved_colour}\tableofcontents}
.
