Hello,

Does someone know of a way to change the color of fonts in the taskbar/titlebar? I'd like to use darker colors for the taskbar and titlebar, but with the black font, it is not so readable. I've poked around a bit, but can't find any info for Windows 8, only Windows 7.

TIA...

You can try editing the Registry. Look in HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Colors

I couldn't seem to make anything happen. I tried fiddling with Title Text, and didn't see anything like Taskbar Text...
