Windows 10: Taskbar Colors

Is it possible to change the taskbar color from black to say windows 7 or windows 8 grey?

Thanks

windows 10 change color of toolbar

Okay. There are only a bunch of colors you can select from there, so do the following:

• Navigate to Settings>Personalization>Colors. Select the desired color.
• Turn on Show color on Action center, taskbar and title bar.

If you want color on Taskbar only, here is the article:

Tweak Colorization Settings for Titlebar, Taskbar and Start .
Run the registry edit according to your need.

 

Windows 10 clock display

Another follow up. I am using the Classic Start Menu on my PCs. I have found that perhaps after one of the recent Windows 10 updates the taskbar text color changed from the white I had, to black. Since the taskbar color was very near to solid black,
the black text on a black task bar looked like the clock time had disappeared. How to change the taskbar text back to white again? I finally found that by right clicking on the Start button a Settings for Classic Start Menu page opened. You should have
Customized Taskbar checked. Under Taskbar Look I had selected Opaque. The next two items in the list were Taskbar color and Taskbar text color. For the Taskbar color, I selected a near black setting from the color chart which resulted in a value of 2D2D2D.
I selected the near black color so I could see the task bar against the full black desktop color I like. For the Taskbar text color I selected full white, FFFFFF. Problem solved. It would have been nice if the taskbar colors selection had been in the Settings
> Personalization >Taskbar section instead under the Start Menu settings.
