Default Too bright search box

Windows 10 home premium 64 bit. I now have a large, bright white
search box on my taskbar. I find it somewhat annoying and have not
been able to find a way to tone it down. Any suggestions to make this
box less bright?

Right-Click on the task bar and then look for something like in this

This will just sown an icon instead of full search box. You can also
hide it completely if you are not going to use it but my advice is to
keep it as it is very useful.

Right click the search box (or any other empty part of the task bar
instead) use Search/Hidden or Search/Icon instead of Search/ShowBox
