Just a heads up, a new Translucent Taskbar released in the MS Store today. Version 2024.3.0.0 and seems to work fine with 24H2 builds.

I'm on v2023.2.0.0 and it's still working fine, with 24H2.
But I only use it to make the Taskbar clear... nothing else.

But... it's good to know there's a newer version if I need it someday. :-)

One minor bug I noted with previous 2024.1.0.0 is if you used it with RoundedTB which I do, then when you first boot Windows the Translucent TB would leave an overlay over the RoundedTB until you clicked the start menu. This is now gone and I tested it on two 24H2 machines.

I used RoundedTB with TranslucentTB a ways back but the TTB version I have now, has that built in.
But again... I only used RoundedTB, to remove the line that showed on the top edge of the Taskbar, when MS broke TranslucentTB, a while back.

FYI, the line is called Taskbar border and is optional now. You can turn it off or on.

The overlay I was speaking of was more of a wide shadow covering the height of the RoundedTB
