Bug Taskbar Size Retention and Task Manager Close Behavior

from Stardock Forums

Start10 works great for me except for two minor annoyances:

- Task manager takes a few seconds longer to close (not really concerned with this)

- Upon reboot my taskbar size is reset to one row - I always have to reset it back to two.

Uninstalling Stat10 resolves these two issues.  

But I like Start10 so I just deal with it.  Anyone else run into these issues?

Thanks

Hello,

Sorry to hear you are having issues. Can't reproduce your problem on my Windows 10 system.

1) Task manager close as soon as I click on the exit button.

2) I set mine dual row taskbar. Reboot and see the taskBar retain its size at dual row.

Please try the following:

-For Win8/10 Users: Open the Start Screen, and type 'cmd'. Right-click on the search result and select 'Run as administrator' from below.

-Type: sfc /scannow

-Wait for the scan to complete (this can take several minutes)

If the SFC finds errors, but cannot fix them, please also run the following command in the same command prompt window:

dism.exe /online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth

The above command should assist with replacing any damaged or problematic system files. Please note, however, since it may require restoring certain files, this process can take some time and you will need to be patient until it has completed.

Please let me know whether this resolves your problem or if you have any additional questions.

Thank you,
