This issue plus tray icons overlapping and sometimes pressing start button on keyboard doesn't bring up menu

My PC today just updated to Start11 1.39.  My Windows is Windows 11 21H2 OS (Build 22000.1574).  On my second monitor the time and start button are overlapping.  It is OK on the main monitor.  If you turn off and on the second monitor it is OK for a split second and then the time and date move to behind the start button.  Both monitors are 24" and are set to 1920x1080.

No, transparency option is on in the OS, and I don`t use any other apps except Start 11.

Linked below is a beta build of Start11 that we believe resolves the issue where the clock appears behind the Start menu icon when you are running the standard Windows 11 taskbar with 22h2 with secondary monitors.

Before installing this build:

• Only install this build if you are experiencing the clock issue, there are no other updates or changes.
• Because this is an out-of-band beta build, you may need to re-install Start11 for future updates - this may not be required but this is our default stance for these out-of-band builds.
• If you are running Insider builds, this build is not intended to fix any issues related to those builds and could introduce new bugs for Insider versions of Windows 11. 

Download- Start11 1.39 Beta Update

The Start11 1.39 Beta Update fixed the clock display on my second monitor.  Thank you

Having the same issue als reply #5. The clock is misplaced on second screen and okay on first screen. Placement is exactly as shown in repy #5.

Also tried restarting explorer process, which does NOT solve the issue. Also terminating Start 11 does solve the issue.

After updating to the latest version, the clock is positioned incorrectly on the secondary display. It's fine on the main display.

Please see Reply 33.

I have a dedicated external monitor for the Windows 11 laptop. No other app I use has demonstrated a similar issue.

Would my settings be lost doing that? I have quite a bit of settings I would have to redo, and doing that isn't worth it for this particular problem.

I agree this is a less important issue but I thought Stardock needed to be aware of it and see if it could be addressed. If Start11 can't deliver at least the search results that Windows search delivers, then some may decide to not use it for that reason.

Yes, I see the same bug in version 1.39.



Monitor #1 is fine, but monitors #2 and #3 both have the time jammed into the Windows button.

Hi!

Is there any way to reload start11 and update the changes after I modify an option via the registry?

I have a very particular use case where I switch from my monitors (with ungrouped taskbar icons) to my TV (where I need them grouped because I don't have much space thanks to scaling), and I found out that you can change the options in the registry, but if I do it from there it doesn't trigger an update. Could you maybe point me on the direction where I can do something like this?

Thanks

I have that text in search bar bug, the last version was my first version (since some other computer back in the Windows 8 days).

Also, its not just security stuff not appearing in search, its a lot of things that either come up in default windows search or at least when searching in the settings search box - for example, attempting to find disk management using any typical keyword you might use for that, doesn't lead to it showing anything relevant (well, it shows an installation of partition magic, depending on search term(s), but it should really be showing both).
