    Adding MUCH more contrast between inactive and active taskbar item


    The contrast between the active and inactive taskbar items is way too low. You can set 'high contrast' in Windows, but this changeseverything, and way too harsh. I only want the active taskbar item to have much more contrast, compared to the inactive taskbar items. I saidonly, capiche! Not change anything else. Also, I want much more contrast. Not a little.

    It greatly reduces productivity that you can't see quickly which item is active. Maybe an invert setting could be an idea. Anyway, in the example below the contrast isway too low.

    I have Win10-1909, but in previous builds the problem was the same.

    Please Microsoft, fix this productivity issue! It should be an extremely basic setting to change this.

    :)
