I did some fiddling around yesterday because the contrast/saturation on my MacBook air was too intense. I don't know what I did to cause this but my menu bar is gray instead of the translucent color it used to be. How can I fix this?
MacBook Air 13″, macOS 15.6
Yes, the Reduce Transparency setting has a dependency on the Increase Contrast setting. Turning ON Increase Contrast also turns ON Reduce Transparency, and you cannot turn OFF Reduce Transparency unless you turn off Increase Contrast.
So, try turning off Increase Contrast. Note that you can increase the contrast of the entire display with the slider a little lower in the setting pane.

Check System Settings > Accessibility > Display > Reduce Transparency. If it's ON, turn it OFF.
OK -- I figured it out. I had to disable increase contrast to reduce transparency.
I found that the reduce transparency toggle is on but when I try to turn it off nothing happens.

Menu bar gray rather than in color
