Likewise you mention type, do you mean type to search or something else? AFTER START 11 12 13 14 15 Economic Analysis of Alternatives at the Steady State Phase At the end of the 15 year transition phase, each alternative. I assume you are using the Windows 10 style menu? You mention changing icon colour, does it hang or crash and is this having picked an existing colour from the list, trying to pick a custom colour from the colour picker, when trying to open the menu for picking colour or after changing colour of a few items? Great application if it weren't so buggy.Īre you able to give us a few more details on the problem so we can look to reproduce it here? I'm running the free trial and considering all the crashing issues I'm reading about on the forums not sure I will get the paid version unless there's an easy. ![]() For me, when I try to change icon color or type things hang and have to shut Start11 down. If you update to Start11 1.2 (current release) or 1.21 (current beta) I imagine your problem will be resolved assuming you use Start11 search rather than classic S10 style search. Have you disabled automatic update checking as you should have been prompted for upgrades to 1.11 and 1.2 by now? There were significant changes to search to workaround a problem with some third party modules causing crashes in searches about a week later in January. It looks like you are using a rather old version of Start11 from 8th Jan 2022.

Customize the Start Menu and Taskbar in Windows 10 / Windows 11. Other great apps like Start11 are Classic Shell, StartAllBack, ExplorerPatcher and StartIsBack.

The most blame I’d put on MSFT is that it took less effort for MSFT to remove taskbar placement configurability than to add a group policy setting to disable it.I'm also experiencing very frequent crasing issues in Start 11. Thus, I figure there’s high odds its enterprise IT behind the Windows 11 taskbar being immovable from the bottom of the screen. No further good ideas would be PERMITTED lest the existence of such ideas raise any doubts about MSFT’s own UI design talents.The best we can hope for is an independent Stardock (and other alternative UI ISVs) and MSFT retaining the subsystems and interfaces in Windows to allow 3rd parties to change what MSFT provides as defaults.There’s nothing flawed in MSFT thinking: 1) enterprise users are drones who’ll unquestioningly use whatever IT departments allow them to use, and all IT wants is a low retraining costs as possible 2) most home users use fewer than a dozen programs, all of which could be pinned to the taskbar or Start menu, and what such users really want is the simplicity of Chrome OS’s shelf and launcher 3) whatever few Windows users remain are uncontrollable, who’ll dabble with 3rd party UI replacements promiscuously, so screw ’em.I suspect but can’t prove that with the rise of remote desktop support, when Help Desk staff connect to users’ PCs to diagnose and maybe fix problems, IT wants EVERYONE to have EXACTLY THE SAME desktop layout. ![]() MSFT acquiring and running Stardock would stultify Stardock. ![]()
