    Search menu translucent when searching


    Whenever I open up the start menu with the windows key and then type in anything to search the menu becomes so translucent that it is nearly impossible to read anything on it. I've tried disabling the transparency setting which prevents the taskbar from being translucent, however this seems to have no effect on searching in the start menu.

    :)

    Which is why I suggested he try there instead. TPU is too limited of a user base to search here alone for anything gaming related.

    Search menu translucent when searching

    Search Question

    I've done some searching on here over the years, and mostly been aggravated at the results. Case in point: 5 minutes ago I went to search for anyone having issues with 5.1 audio on Wolfenstein new order. So, I started simple with
    New Order
    . that didn't go well. So, I swapped to "New Order". That gave me this result

    Search Results for Query: "new order"
    • The following words were not included in your search because they are too short, too long, or too common: new
    Is there any way to change or improve our search engine? Or is there a better way to search for something like that?
