Hello,
Sorry to hear you are having issues. You're referring to which Stardock software? Start11 or Windowblinds? Also more details on your system.

1. Windows 10/11 full version numbers. Use Winver.exe.
2. Start11 and/or Windowblinds version numbers?

Thank you.

If you mean the taskbar tray area, you will need to change your Windows Color mode to light to have black font and icons on your taskbar tray area.

Thank you,
