I have downgraded to 0.90 which i have stored and the issue is gone. This purgign will require me to do te setup again?

ok, 0.90 has other issues and the newer version i havent storted. I'm not really willing to end up in re-setup stuff but looks like you not givign me a choice. I dont like it.

You do not need to do resetup.

There was a known issue in the build which caused problems on multiple monitor setups when one monitor was to the left (or above) the primary monitor.

This has been resolved and an update is coming very shortly (0.94)

I had to redo setup, i did it. It is not helping.

i can use it only when using windows key. The release 0.93 it broken. I can just workarround. The last version, i dotn know the number, was wokring better. If you can share with me, i would like to downgrade.

Thank you

Also an additinal bug - icons in systray are often disappering, you need mouseover to make them visible again. I think this came into with the Taskbar ontop.

This should be addressed in the 0.94 build that's out now.

yes, thank you, it is fixed. It has soe new issue, e.g if you pin the Windows "Disk Clean Up" tool to the Start11 StartMenu, the right click action "more" > "run as administrator" is not working, for CMD this is working, for the disk tool it was wokring. This is not critical but someting is buggy...

Are you saying thats new over 0.93?

Hi,

sorry for the late answer. It is 0.94, last remember i have succesfully used it was in the version i had before i did my 1st post here, i think it was 0.92.

Somewthign has changed, for most pinned icons right click "run as admin" is not wokring. When i type in their name and right lick then i see an old context menu and can "run as Admin". I hope i'm not cofusing you. In 0.92 i think, the right click on a pinned icon shown "run as admin" behind "more" in the modern win11 context menu.

I'm using version 0.94. The "Universal Applications" shortcut is now showing as Empty, which it shouldn't be.

Which menu style are you using?

Successfully updated karma reason!

Grid - Modern style. Strangely it's only happening on my Surface Go 2 (Intel M3) - My desktop (an Asus compact machine with a Ryzen 4700M chip) seems to be ok. Not sure why the processor would make a difference. And the Surface has 8gb of ram - wasn't happening before but the Start 11 menu also feels more sluggish than before - subjective I know

Goto the registry HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Stardock\Start8\Start8.ini\Start8 and find the FlushMetro keys and delete them all. Then reboot. Any better?

Successfully updated karma reason!

Nope, afraid it hasn't fixed it

The Win11 new style

The run as admin issue does appear to be missing for some items.

As a short term workaround you can hold shift + ctrl and click on the item in the list and it will launch it as admin.
