Description

I install translucentTB, and it works fine until i restart my computer, once it's restarted the taskbar is black, if i close translucentTB while it's black it becomes transparent, re open it and it becomes black again. I have been unable to find a solution anywhere else.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the black taskbar after restarting Windows, then compare behavior before and after closing and reopening TranslucentTB. Trace the startup and taskbar-rendering paths involved in restoring translucency; done means the taskbar remains translucent after restart and reopening the application.
