Thank to all that installed and provided feedback.

Known issues:

Centered taskbar icons

Win10: Once the taskbar buttons have been centered via the Start11 config, if disabled later, they will remain centered on anything other than the main monitor.  This will be addressed in a future update.

Win11: Works as intended

Start11 menu not showing on anything but the main

Win10: Works as intended

Win11: Start11 menu only shows on main

Same here no 0.55 only 0.5 - must be a secret link somewhere ....

Thanks Sean - can see it now, not sure how I missed it before …

Kind of weird if I follow the posted links to sign in and download  start11.55 it won't let me sign in but if I hit the little black Avatar at the top of the page and go to downloads I was able to find 11.55 and download it. So I'm going to install it could be my browser or the fact that I'm using Android or other numerous things. Again to all thank you.

Peace 

When not using Start11 search settings (image below) and I click on the Start11 menu and start typing to search, it always omits the first character.

So, for example. If I am looking for Calculator, when I type Calculator, I always get alculator.
If you pause for a second or two and type slowly, it doesn't happen. But that's annoying waiting to type.

Running .55 now, updated manually. Currently on W10 19043.1165. When going into the Settings > Start Menu > Change visual settings. One can scroll down past the normal settings and see some weirdness:

Settings > Start Menu > Change what the menu should show:

This option was grayed out in .5, when using modern theme without icon. It is no longer grayed out. Turning it off and on again doesn't actually do anything. I think it should remain grayed out.

One last thing, concerning "*Center taskbar buttons on Win10*". I really like that feature (both alignment options work), but the Start button itself is not being centered in W10 together with the other buttons. Is that to be expected?

Taskbar / Taskbar blur, transparency, and color / Adjust taskbar transparency / [Settings]

Win11 variant... The default is 50%. Set some other value (I used 85%). The change is made and holds when you exit the configuration tool.

Problem: Reopen the configuration tool and open the taskbar transparency setting. The setting reverts to the default 50% and you need to set a different setting again.

Win10 variant... This issue doesn't happen. When you reopen the transparency setting, the setting that you chose is unchanged as should be the case.

Some Issues:

- The Non-Beta Version shows the selected Starticon from Start10 (Win11 Button is shown in taskbar)
    - Beta Version shows split up arrow icon (Win11 Button is shown on actual taskbar)
- Start11 menu straight up does not work if taskbar has been moved to top of screen (via registry key)
    - Works if Windows Button is used

When a window intersects the taskbar with blur enabled mouse inputs slow to a crawl (The cursor will slowly yet smoothly execute the movements made with your mouse) until the window stops intersecting the blurred UI element  You also cannot use the keyboard to input while this is occurring.

A workaround is to just disable blur on the taskbar.
