Disk Cleanup Breaks Registry Key Export

Registry, Start11

from Stardock Forums

I have always used Windows Disk Cleanup to remove all temp files. However, after installing Start11 on my new computer exporting Keys is broken. When I right click the Key to export the Registry closes, argh! I have to uninstall and reinstall Start11. Next time I run Disk Cleanup exporting Keys is broken again.

Can you add some code to Start11 that will not allow it to be broken by running Disk Cleanup?

I am a little unclear what Start11 has to do with exporting registry keys?

I have since discovered that two apps Start11 and Explorer Patcher work great together. Problem with opening the Registry and trying to export a key only happens when both apps are installed and only after I run Disk Cleanup.

Yes, I have Registry pinned to both Start11 and the standard Start Menu in Windows 11. Some type of temp file gets removed during the disk cleanup process when both apps are installed.

In this case, I opted to uninstall Start11 until this glitch is fixed. I do like Start11 a lot and want to reinstall it.
