Windows 10: background colors

A couple days ago, when Windows 10 performed its automatic update, I was left with the color of my backgrounds all black. I want my taskbar black, my desktop a picture and all other backgrounds white. I was able to get the picture back on the desktop BUT, I cannot have the taskbar black and the other backgrounds white. If I try and change the background to white, it ALSO changes the taskbar to white. Help, please. Thanks

:)
