Control Panel -> Programs and Features Task Band Goof-up in Windows Vista



Here is another interesting goof-up not bug in Windows Vista:

1. Open Control panel and double-click on "Programs and Features" icon.

2. Look carefully at Task Band containing "Organize" and "Views" buttons.

3. You'll notice that Task Band color is same as the Menubar color. Actually it should look same as it looks in My Computer but its a goof up that it takes Menubar image to show its color instead of task band image defined in the Aero theme.

4. Look in following screenshot. Its clear coz I have also tried using another theme having different menubar color and taskband is showing the same color in this theme too.

Actually it should look like following:

So its a goof-up that "Programs and Features" task band doesnt use the actual task band image and in stead it use Menubar image from the Windows theme.

    Interesting. This gives a clue as to why the Views button on the "programs and features" list doesn't act like it should. Have you ever noticed that it doesn't remember your preferred view ie. you change it to Details view and then come back a day later and it's not Details? Must be a custom task band and view button just for this window and not hooked together properly.
