not to worry solved it.
using a reg editor
HKCU\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Today\ThemeName.tsk
create the binary value called -
Color_CommandBarText
0000 00 00 00 where '00 00 00' represents your RGB value
colour chart found here:

soft reset or change theme and change back and enjoy
incase anyone suggests this reg edit changes all system colours (possible assumption from my screen capture) the taskbar colours were changed through rc mod
