    Start Menu/Taskbar/Settings Transparency Effect Not Working


    I tried all the methods online, none of the regedit fixes don't work. The option is turned on in Color settings. For some reason, if I boot in safe mode the issue is solved. Does anyone know how to fix this?

    :)

    Personalization Settings for Colors for "make Start, taskbar and action center transparent" is not listed

    I'm a tad confused. :/

    I have Windows 10 installed on a PC at work and two PCs at home (Home and Professional).

    But on my home PC the Personalization Settings for Colors for "make Start, taskbar and action center transparent" is not listed, but "Transparency effects" is listed and On; however this doesn't result in to the same
    Transparency of the Start, taskbar and action center screens.

    Why are the Settings options different or configured and listed differently on PCs running with same version of Windows?

    How many variations are there?

    Where is the definitive help (when "Find a setting" shows options that are not available in reality).

    Thanks

    Ah, yes. So this mostly worked; however, it negated the effects of translucentTB. I would like some or all transparency on my taskbar still, but have the start menu consistent colors is a step in the right direction. Any further suggestions?

  4. Start Menu/Taskbar/Settings Transparency Effect Not Working

    No transparency in start menu

    I'm using Windows 10 Pro & I've updated to the latest version i.e.
    1803 version. Before the update also I was having a non-transparent
    Start Menu, even after selecting the Transparency Effects option (
    Settings > Personalisation > Colours > Transparency Effects ), and I thought it to be a bug & waited for the next update. But now, even after updating to version 1803 also it was not solved. The taskbar's transparency is working fine, but the Start
    Menu
    is always opaque (except Full Screen mode). So, if there's any way to solve it, please say...
