Start11 - Control Panel Link Broken

August 31, 2022 2:00:12 AM from Stardock ForumsStardock Forums

Running Start11 on Windows 11 with the Windows 7 Menu Display setup in Start11.  Noticed the "Control Panel" link in the Start box does not go to any feature?  Did Windows 11 get rid of the small icon Control Panel in Windows 11 thus breaking this option?

Hello,
Sorry to hear you are having issues. I don't see the issue on my Start11 control panel right panel link. Can you give more details please. Refer to my screenshot below. On Win 21H2 (OS Build 22000.708)

  1. Your Windows 11 full version numbers please. Use Winver.exe
  2. Screenshot of your issue please.

Thanks

Using Windows Insider program so my Win11 version is pretty new, but I don't think that is a factor here.

In my Start11 settings I set the control panel to "Display as a Link".

And then when I click on the "Control Panel" link in the Start Menu, the window with all the Control Panel icons does not come up?  I see now fro m your screenshot I can change the config to "Display Menu" which does work, which I did not know you could do.  But curious why the Control Panel Windows does not pop up with the link as it did with Start10 in Windows10.

I usually set mine to link too. I changed it there to "menu" so that I can captured those small icons on the menu. But for my system. If I set to link. It still open up the full control panel window. I do think it might because Microsoft have change something on the insider preview version. I am currently on 21H2 (OS Build 22000.708)

Thank you,
