    Change taskbar icon colors when using "full" transparency software?


    Hi everyone! I was looking through the forums and couldn't find anything that addressed this specifically. As you can see in the screenshot below I'm on ver 1909 and I use FalconX taskbar.

    Change taskbar icon colors when using "full" transparency software? [​IMG]

    It can be pretty difficult to see the icons when a lighter background is displayed. Now I have a theme with 900+ images and I really prefer having a transparent taskbar but it gets pretty annoying having to change it back to color when a lighter background comes up. Anyone know how to remedy this?

    Thanks Change taskbar icon colors when using "full" transparency software? :)

    To clarify, I am specifically referring to the action center/system icons and the start/search buttons. I want to make them darker but not black because that would still cause the same issue.

    :)

    Color change in taskbar

    Hello pranayvarma,

    Just to verify, have you tried changing the color of your taskbar via settings? If so, try it out and check if the color would remain inconsistent. Here are the steps:

    1. Launch the Settings app.
    2. Select Personalization.
    3. Click the Colors tab.
    4. Uncheck the Automatically pick an accent color from my background.
    5. Set Transparency effects to Off.
    6. Under Show accent color on the following surfaces, put a check on
      Start, taskbar, and action center.
    7. Pick a color that you want.
    8. Restart your PC.

    Let us know the outcome.

  3. Changing the taskbar color to white in Windows 10

    Hi Michael,

    Thank you for contacting Microsoft Community. Your interest in Windows 10 is much appreciated.

    In Windows 10 there is no option for changing the color to white but you can change it to different colors. To change the color of the task bar I suggest you to follow the below steps and check if it helps.

    • In the search box, type settings.
    • Then select personalization.
    • Click on color option on the left side.
    • You will find an option called “show color on start, taskbar and start icon”.
    • You need to on the option and then you can change the color accordingly.
    Hope this information was helpful and do let us know if you need further assistance. We will be glad to assist.
