Windows 10 – Change Task Bar & Start Menu Accent based on current wallpaper automatically

Windows 10 is awesome and currently one of the feature which I like is, changing the task bar & start menu accent colour based on current wallpaper.

To invoke this, do the following.

  1. Right click on empty desktop
  2. Click “Personalize” menu item
  3. Select “Colours” tab
  4. Enable or toggle on “Automatically pick an accent colour from my background”
  5. Enable or toggle “Show colour on Start, taskbar and action centre”
  6. Optionally you can make Start Menu, taskbar & action centre transparent by toggling the last option.
