Start button goes white on secondary display

See above -- this is on Windows 10 build 10061 (10049 was still OK) and Start10 build 10.0.50.

Yes, it is.  Primary display is OK.  It's white on 2nd and 3rd displays.

I haven' tried removing Start10 so I don't know whether there is a change to the standard start button behaviour.

I have reproduced it here.  It is happening because of a small OS change on the secondary taskbars.  We have it fixed internally now and will put out an update with some other tweaks next week I suspect.

I have also seen it without Start10 with a vertical taskbar in certain circumstances for the buttons below the start button, so it isn't confined exclusively to us but it is worth fixing.

Let us know if you hit any other problems too.

Hate to say this but this problem still exists in build 10074 and with Start 10 version 0.57. Would love to know your thoughts.

It should not exist.  How did you install Start10?

It is also white on my 3rd display. Further observations led to my main monitor turning black after an indeterminate period of time, it could happen within 10 minutes or more than 5 hours. I have no screensavers installed, i thought of that days ago and actually removed a copy of Displayfusion 7.1 because I suspected that, reinstalled a clean version of build 10074 again and the problem came back the minute I reinstalled Start10.

I had the problem (white icon on 2nd and 3rd display) on 10061.  I have not seen this on 10074, though.
