If you ever dreamt of having a full choice on the matter of coloring your Windows OS Taskbar, then you're in luck. RainbowTaskbar should be the way to go.

With a newly added interface that lets you customize your color preference, and included portability, this program should improve the looks of your machine, guaranteed. While it does have an interface, understanding what each entry does, could prove a tad difficult, although it's not a dealbreaker.

The idea behind this application isn't necessarily to only color your Taskbar. It's the added color transitions that make it special. Your desktop will indeed seem like a rainbow. Ultimately, the name of the app spells its purpose to the user. In terms of customizing your Taskbar, there are plenty of choices.

There are already some default transitions you could use if you're not keen on creating your own. The user will be able to set opacity and transparency levels for the taskbar. One can also enable or disable these features. Select the feature you'd like to modify, and proceed to change the slider to either turn it on or off.

Originality is always key to any customization the user desires on a machine. It makes objects feel more personal, and RainbowTaskbar seems to take this into consideration. Creating your own rainbow effect is easy. Choose a starting color, the effect you want to use, the duration of the effect in milliseconds, and you're done. Repeat the process for the next color and Bob's your uncle.

If there is one thing that could be improved it's the labeling on the presets and functions themselves. Although you can work out what they each do, it wouldn't hurt to have even more accuracy. The presets look like a set of numbers. Of course, these represent the chosen colors and the effects, but to newcomers, it might seem confusing.

RainbowTaskbar is an interesting application for individuals looking to improve their machine's look. It can easily be added and set up. It can also easily be removed when the user will want to return to the original Windows look. It works well with Windows 11, the latest iteration, so that's a plus also.

What's new in RainbowTaskbar 2.4.1:

  • Actually fixed crunchy radius for multiple monitors.
