Hello!


When the selection (disable hot corners) taken away, the hot corners are not automatically returns to action. Is this a mistake?


By the way, I'm so glad that my native language is added.. :smitten:  even though some of the spelling errors are showing. *_*

Downloaded and Install Start 8 1.45 on my HP Elite Book 8570W Workstation which is configured with Windows 8.1 Pro with Update 1 and after rebooting find that I get an error concerning a Server Start when I click anything which has to do with a Windows Explorer window such as File Explorer or even Control Panel. After clicking it fast and a multitude of times (around 20), sooner or later it displays a windows error concerning an Unable to Start Server Error and a host of windows load. I have determined that my problems are Start 8 related completely. I uninstalled Start 8 and removed all references to it inside my registry and rebooted. Upon accessing the desktop, my problems are gone. I like Start 8, is there any way that we can troubleshoot and fix this?

It would be best if you contact support@stardock.com so they can gather more information.  This is not normal and I have not seen any other reports of anything even remotely similar.
