Latest Windows Update Screwed Up The Mica Effect

Wednesday, May 13, 2026 by FRiNGE07 | Discussion: Start Menu Products

I just Updated My Laptop a few hours ago. When My Laptop booted back up, the Mica Effect from Start 11 changed to a 2-toned, almost solid colour. Also, the slider for Opacity no longer works at all. I just updated Start 11, hoping it would be fixed, but it wasn't. It's not as translucent as it was

 Before the start menu had light that came through the menu. So it was not clear. But if you had something with a different colour behind it, it would come through the window ever so slightly. Like this image cause this is what mica is supposed to do
