  3. White bar covering top portion of Windows Explorer on Windows 10

    Hi, I have 2 users that have suffered from this problem. Windows Explorer displays a white bar at the top and doesn't display correctly. A reboot solves the issue, restarting the process does not. You can interact with the area where the white bar is,
    it simply doesn't display correctly. Moving the window around, the white bar only shows in Windows Explorer, no other apps. Both are using HP desktops but completely different models, one is an HP ProDesk 400 G3 Mini the other a HP Z240 Tower Workstation.
    I uninstalled/reinstalled the latest driver for each computer from the HP website with no success. The issue is random and intermittent. Any suggestions?

    File explorer displays a white blank bar on the menubar

    Change color of menubar and list header?


    Success! Once I used the Mr. GRiM method for placing the theme files and folders then they ally became active.

    I needed to modify some other image numbers than the ones you suggested, maybe because I'm using a different dpi setting?

    Here are the images I modified, along with some that I didn't end up needing:

    #572 for list header background
    #602 for ? (wasn't active, not sure what it does)
    #603 for list header background (wasn't active, but I modified it just in case)
    #749 for toolbar background
    #1197 for menubar background

    Thanks for your help on this Jerry! Now I can ally get Windows looking more how I'd like it.

    A sample of my progress so far. Clean and simple, but not all-white like the default theme is. There needs to be some contrast to make things easier for your eye to d.
