TranslucentTB is a small tool that can beautify the tasks of Windows 10 and Windows 11. It is popular because its file size is very small and only occupies 3.8M of memory resources.
TranslucentTB can set the taskbar to four modes: normal, opaque, transparent, and acrylic. Many people generally set the taskbar to transparent.
From March 2023, when Windows 11 upgraded KB5023706, the TranslucentTB failed.
problem
Because Windows restricts some functions, we can solve this problem by adding the open source code of ViveTool in the Windows version, so that the restricted functions can be unlocked.
ViveTool can enable certain features on Windows computers and run the TranslucentTB tool.
