    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. Unable to change Taskbar color

    Hello. I just did the Windows 10 update and now I'm unable to change the color of my Taskbar. I followed these instructions:

    To change the color of your taskbar, select the
    Start button
    > Settings >
    Personalization
    > Colors
    > Show accent color on the following surfaces. Select the box next to
    Start, taskbar, and action center. This will change the color of your taskbar to the color of your overall theme.

    The problem is that the box next to Start, taskbar, and action center is shaded and will not accept it to be selected.

    Thanks for any help or suggestions.
