Compatible yet Win 11

This and Start 10 are my two all-time major loves for managing my interface in Windows. I can jump to Start 11 now but without WindowBlinds, I am slightly reluctant to move to Windows 11. Any idea on how soon we might make WindowBlinds compatible. I'd jump ahead if it works or is a WindowBlinds 11 Beta. Any thoughts?

Right now the schedule is:

  1. Start11 (next weekish)
  2. Fences 4 (October)
  3. DeskScapes 11 (Fall)
  4. Groupy 2.0 (Fall)
  5. WindowBlinds 11 (2023)
  6. SkinStudio 11 (2023)


As Windows 11 appears to kill Curtains (and Uxtheme.dll) we have our work cut out for us.

I reinstalled WindowBlinds10 and updated to Start 11 for the time being on Win 10. Would love to know if WindowBlinds works at all in Win 11. My guess is there are likely functionality issues?

I decided to go ahead and update to Windows 11 as I am performance-centric. WindowBlinds 10 doesn't work right. The interface goes yucchy. So I uninstalled it leaving the file setup in place. I'm rooting for Stardock to get this one back soon in the fold as I really do love it.

Windows 11 is nice and very snappy. My Dell XPS computer runs faster on it.  It's a great product just needs WindowBlinds! I splurged to keep my license updated and looking forward to the rewrite.
