Start11 V2 Colour options (Search bar)

from Stardock Forums

I have V2 of Start 11 and cannot have a dark/black start menu and light/white search bar.

They are both black or both white, which I do not like.

I will be willing to buy this product if I can have a custom search bar colour.

Please tell us what version (use winver.exe) of Windows you are running, and what version of Start11 you are using.

Also, let us know which Start menu style you are using.

Good day

I have Windows 11, Windows 11 Home Single Language, 23H2, 22631.2715, Windows Feature Experience Pack 1000.22677.1000.0. 

I am using Start11 2.0.

As you can see, the search bar is black. I would like to be able to make it white.

Hello,
Sorry to hear you are having issues. But, I don't think that is possible with Start11 v2 alone. You can try to use a Light windows theme mode which will make the Search bar area white. And set your menu background using dark custom graphics, but not sure if it will work with that dark text on dark background.

Thanks
