    How to Configure the Start Menu?


    Night Hawk and tcman50 - how did you get all your tiles the same color? I might be able to live with the Start Menu if I could do that!

    Update - found the way to get them all one color - just hadn't explored it enough - am going to try Windows 10 Start Menu - been using Classic Start. but am open to change. Think I might like it!

  2. Personlization holds many an answer! *Roflmao2 The background or theme you have applied will decide that for you unless....

    you leave that on/off switch set to on where Windows automatically decides for you or you turn it off and then have to pick a color!

    Pick a color please! That will then become the color of the main task bar as well as for the Start menu. You will also see the option for seeing them made transparent.

    And in the last section for Advanced you have the High Contrast options seen there for when you have a theme applied.

    These are the options you have to work with as far as colors while the background as a separate wallpaper can still be anything you want. I suspect you even still see the Bing Desktop web slide presentation app work on 10 as well. Never did use that one here however.

    Want to see High Contrast at work do you? No you don't! Get ready to view with a pair of sun shades on!

    That was the High Contrast Black applied there! The other will tend to you toss a high intensity spot light in your face! *What*Roflmao2

    Ok now you can take the shades of! It's over! *Biggrin
