    Same color for task bar and tile bar?

    When I change the color in Windows 10 from the settings, I do get the correct color in the title bar but I get some kind of blue on the task bar because the task bar has some dark blue background and it mixes the colors. How do I get rid of the dark blue
    background in the task bar so that I can get same color on both? Disabling transparency is not an option as it disables by background image in the start page.

    Explorer title bar text color too bright grey

    To change the title bar colors in Windows 10, you can use the built-in colors by changing the High Contrast Settings without editing the registry.

    Here are the steps:

    • Click Start, and then click Settings.
    • Click Ease of Access, and then click High contrast.
    • Choose a theme. You can also change the colors for the Text, Hyperlinks, Disabled Text, Selected Text, Button Text and Background on this option.
    • Click Apply.

    Let us know how it goes.
