Why the search menu appears transparent after installing guest additions?

Copper Contributor

After installing the guest additions in Windows 11 host on Oracle Virtual Box, most of the menus on the taskbar like the search menu and the date and time window appear transparent but the rest of the menus like the start menu appear opaque.

Why only the search menus and data and time window are transparent but the taskbar is opaque?

 

This happens even after disabling the transparency effects of windows. However, this resolves after uninstalling the guest additions or disabling the 3d acceleration but disabling 3d acceleration freezes windows.

 

How can this be resolved?
