Quick answer
Evaluate StartAllBack using your actual accessibility needs: readable text, visible focus, comfortable targets, predictable menus, and compatibility with the assistive tools you use. A classic appearance is not automatically more accessible than native Windows.
What matters for this task
This checklist does not certify accessibility or claim testing with every screen reader. It helps structure a personal evaluation and identify when a native Windows setting is a better choice.
Steps to follow
- Start with Windows text-size and display-scale settings that are comfortable for you.
- Choose a clear, high-contrast menu and taskbar style rather than a highly transparent decorative preset.
- Navigate Start and essential commands with the keyboard, verifying that focus is visible and Escape returns you safely.
- Test your usual assistive technology and larger text settings before relying on the configuration for daily work.
Verify the result
Keep a written list of any inaccessible control, missing label, clipped text, or unreliable focus behavior. Those observations are more useful than a general appearance rating.
Limits and rollback
Return to native Windows or a simpler style when customization makes an essential task harder. Do not disable accessibility settings to preserve a visual effect.

Should text size or taskbar icon size be adjusted first?
Establish comfortable Windows text and scale settings, then tune the taskbar within that environment.
