Updated Start 11 service startup type reverting to Manual on reboot

from Stardock Forums

I updated Start 11 today but it wasn't running on reboot. The service startup type was set to Manual. I changed it to Automatic and started the service without a problem. However, it reverts to Manual on reboot, and I can't find any reason why.

I'm running Windows 10 Version 21H1 (OS Build 19043.1348).

Are you using Parallels Desktop?

What antivirus product are you using or similar anti malware?

To be set to manual requires something external to Start11 to be resetting it each reboot.

I use Eset and Malwarebytes. I agree, this must be an 'incompatibility' issue. Still frustrating, though.

I must say, I love the app. The centring of the taskbar items and start button on my widescreen monitor makes it much more comfortable to use and will certainly delay my adoption of Windows 11.
