No transparent Taskbar

from Stardock Forums

Hi,

I purchased Curtains because some of the themes showed transparent taskbar and other transparency screens. But upon applying, none show transparent. I could have easily downloaded taskbarX or similar program for free.

Hello,
Sorry to hear you are having issues. But, I am on Windows 10 21H2 (OS Build 19044.1706) and I have transparent taskbar. Do you have Stardock Start10 or Start11 install? This is needed for taskbar to skin correctly.

Thanks

Start10 or Start11 is not required for curtains to skin the taskbar.  It is required to skin the start menu but the taskbar will skin without those.

If you are not getting transparency on the taskbar when the first thing to check is if you have anything else running that might also be impacting the taskbar transparency.  Tools like OpenShell/Classic shell could do if they also have options to control the transparency level.
