This is apparently the default somehow on my system and I cannot figure out how to make it readable. I can find no menu items on how to change the colors and it's kind of annoying.

Drat, you are correct. I thought it went away when classic shell was closed but I was incorrect.

Taskbar is not part of Classic Shell.

This happens if you are using a wrong Windows theme. e.g. theme made for Windows 8.1 on Windows 8 or theme made for Windows 8.1 on Windows 10. Third party themes must be made for exact version of Windows that you use.

These 2 statements are contradictory. Taskbar is either affected by classic shell or is not. I am using no themes and no skins.
