I thought it wouldn't bother me, but after my last windows 10 upgrade, the taskbar at the bottom of the page went from black to white. I found it much easier to see when it was black and want to change it back that way if I can do it simply. I searched online and it seemed the instructions were too involved for such a simple change. Anyone ever experience this and have a quick and easy fix?

I recently went from Win10 version 1909 to version 2004 & it took my audio driver with it. Camper6 suggested doing a restore to the last version you had. Is that plausible?

Thanks Marci, this is the only inconvenience I've noticed so far, so I'd probably just put up with it than do a system restore, my husband didn't even mention the change in the taskbar. I've done a couple of system restores over the years for more serious problems.

I tried to follow these directions, but I got no option for dark mode default. When I chose custom color, I just picked black. I restarted the computer and there was no change. I'm not very computer savvy, so I might just leave well enough alone.
 
I tried the following on two Win 10 Computers and worked fine,Went to WHITE and then switched it back to Black

Change the color settings to change the color of Taskbar to Black. Refer the steps mentioned below:

  1. Press Windows Logo key + I together to open Settings.
  2. Now click on Personalization
  3. At the left hand pane select Colors
  4. Now on the right hand side under Choose your color select the drop down to Dark.
 
I got fed up with Windows updates/issues a few years ago and got a Chromebook. I love it! I highly recommend one for anyone who doesn't need a computer for business tasks. For emailing, on-line shopping, or internet browsing it's perfect. Mine has an SD card slot so I can download my pictures. It has its own word processing type program. But it doesn't have a CD drive. That may be the only drawback for some folks.
