Windows 11 personalization settings lets you make it look and feel however you like it. For example, you can change or create themes, change accent colors, and more. One such Windows 11 visual effects customization option is the Transparency Effects. With this option, you can control whether Windows 11 adds transparency to certain app window backgrounds. For example, if you enable this option, the transparency effects are added to the File Explorer title bar, the entire Settings window, etc. On the other hand, if you don’t like these eye candy effects and prefer to save system resources, you can disable transparency effects.
In this quick and simple tutorial, I will show the steps to enable or disable transparency effects in Windows 11.
