    Windows Task bar and borders colour change post update 07/08/20


    Hi,


    I updated my windows 10 last night and when I turned my PC back on the task bar and windows borders had be reset to default white.


    I previously had them as a low intensity, transparent red colour however I cannot get back to how it was, I have enabled "transparency effects", set my colour back to dark mode and changed the colour however this still brings a taskbar and window border which is much more intense and less transparent than what I previously had and I have no idea how to get back to those colours!


    Please Help!

    Alex

    :)

  3. Changing the task bar accent colour

    After updating to build 1903, I'm trying to change the accent colour for the taskbar. There are 2 options under "Show the accent colour on the following surfaces". I can select the "Title bars and window borders" option OK but the "Start, taskbar and
    action centre" option is greyed out and I can't select it. Why not?

    Independent taskbar and window border colours?


    One of the things I find most annoying about Windows 7, being a long-time XP user, is the lack of independent colour settings for the various GUI elements, for example, the taskbar, active window title bar and active window border colours are not separately settable. I see no reason whatsoever why this has to be so - XP offered far, far more flexibility in this respect.

    As far as I can see, we still have the same situation with Windows 10. It appears to be impossible to have the taskbar a different colour to the active window title bar and border. It is even impossible to get the taskbar to be a solid colour - it is always transparent. There is not even a Windows 7-like opacity control. A massive step backwards in user personalisation control.

    And why doe the window border have to be so thin? I can hardly see it at all.
