Start Menu not showing up but all else is. Fully purchased version

Please advise

from Stardock Forums
Hello,

I have uninstalled and reinstalled my fully purchased version of Windowblinds, but the startmenu always stays as the Windows classic menu. Everything else changes perfectly but this.

Please help.

Thanks,

Devin

You could try right-clicking on the taskbar and select Properties. Click on Start Menu and make sure the selection "Start Menu" is selected and not "Classic Start Menu". If that doesn't work, please contact support@stardock.com as they will be able to assist you in resolving this issue.
