Winaero team has developed a new tool, the Opaque Taskbar. It works well with Windows 8 and Windows 10. Basically, it is developed for disabling or enabling the transparency of the taskbar. You might have noticed that Win 8 and Win 10 comes with a transparent taskbar.
The Opaque Taskbar is freeware and portable software, so there is no need to install it on your computer. Just download from the end of the article, unzip in a folder and utilize it.
Two separate files are zipped in a single file. One is for 32-bit, and another is for the 64-bit OS. Be careful in running the correct one.
If you want to disable the transparency permanently, click on Disable Taskbar Transparency and the checkmark on Disable transparency at the Windows startup.
Whenever you restart your PC, it will automatically run in the background and sit in the computer taskbar.
The Opaque Taskbar also allows you to keep Taskbar opaque even if the theme or Aero color was changed.
Since it is portable and freeware, so once should give it a try. You can download Opaque Taskbar from here.
