That sounds salty to me. It must mean stardock is doing something right.

What features are you wanting exactly?

none of this is true. Startisback/startallback has never been supported by stardock since its not original to the operating system. They recoded the original start menu from windows 7 to work on later os systems even though it's been fully removed from the systems to this date. There is no form of code stealing here, stardocks start10/11 has been its own thing. Not as perfect as they should be but work relatively well. Startisback/startallbacl does way more than what start 11 can do atm. It allows for old taskbar behaviors and explorer modifications. None of witch start11 does. It does software related stuff for features such as smaller taskbar icons and uncombined buttons (though this feature makes windows 11s taakbar glitchy. Causing the taskbar buttons to flicker and preview windows popup to not pop up where the button is at.) 

What stardock needs to do is add in a option to windowblinds 11 to not skin the taskbar and start menu so that those who do wish to use 3rd party alternatives can do so. Using startallback and windowblinds will result in crashing and weird behaviors. Right now it semi skins the start menu and taskbar from that program but trying to interact with them will cause explorer to restart. Each iteration of windows I getting harder and harder to customize, you can clearly see the customization scene has slowed down considerably. We may eventually get to a point where we won't be able to do this anymore.

Why WindowBlinds 11 not work with Explorer Patcher ?

When i enabled classic taskbar on Explorer Patcher WindowBlinds 11 remove/block taskbar, start menu and context menu.

It works fine for me. I do know that if you are using start 11 you have to turn off "let start 11 enhance the taskbar" for it to load the windows 10 taskbar. If you aren't using start 11 that might be the problem as well.

I posted an issue with Calculator titlebar slow loading with any skin. I hope WB 11 authors are aware and it didn't get lost in the works. This is on windows 11 pro latest build.

Nice work around but they still need to fix the issue with new calc after all it's still a bug.

I've noticed a slow redraw rate in Microsoft store app titlebars, Like Cribbage Deluxe and Calculator.  

What do you mean by a slow redraw rate exactly?

Sometimes store apps and windows settings frames dont render unless you maximize/restore them.

Bug?

When WindowBlinds is installed i have to click on the hidden taskbar for it to expand . When Start 11 alone installed it works correctly when I mouse over it expands. I do not see any setting that would cause this in WindowBlinds.

This is the old Windows calculator linked above. I prefer this one any day over the Windows 10/11 one.

same issue here, hopefully they fix this issue as it is really annoying.
