In this guide, we show you how you can get the Menu Bar background back in macOS Tahoe, and make it look the same as it did in macOS Sequoia or older.
If you have updated your Mac to macOS Tahoe, you would have noticed that the iconic Mac menu bar has changed.
In the new design, macOS does not show a menu bar background, which makes it look a bit empty and weird.
Get Menu Bar Background Back
If you’re like me and are not a fan of the background-less Mac menu bar, then this article is for you. We will show you how you can get the background back on the menu bar.
- Click on the Apple logo from the menu bar and open System Settings.
- In the System settings window, click on the Menu bar option from the side pane. This will give you access to the Menu bar settings.
- Finally, you have to look for the Show menu bar background option and turn it on.
As soon as you turn it on, the menu bar background will return and you will get its classic look back.
The menu bar with a background looks way better and polished compared to the one without it. If you agree, then you now know how to get it back on Macs running macOS Tahoe.
