Hello,

Does anyone else have this problem with the latest version of Start11 v1.45?

The start menu has 2 icons and there is also a thin stripe across the entire taskbar.

 

Thanks in advance,

Regards.

What exact build of Windows 11 are you using?

Also does it happen with different start button images?

Hello,

I am using Windows 11 PRO  | Version: 22H2 | Operating system version: 22621.1778 | Experience: Windows Feature Experience Pack 1000.22642.1000.0 (64 bits).

Yes, it happens to me with all the start button images. I press "Restart explorer" and it is fixed, but then I restart the PC and the error appears again with the start button image and the stripe across the entire taskbar.

Hello,
Sorry to hear you are having issues. Try this, uninstall Start11. Reboot immediately after uninstall finished (important). Reinstall latest Start11 version. Reboot again. Retest and report back.

Thank you,

Hello,

The problem continues. I have done all the steps you told me and the problem persists.

Can you send me the download link of the previous version if possible, please? Until the previous version it worked fine for me. The problem is causing me the latest version of the program.

Please try purge and reinstall steps as mention here : [Link]. Just make sure to redownload the latest version from your account page. Reboot after the purge. Reinstall and reboot again after the installation. Retest and report back here.

Update: I have downloaded from the internet the previous version (1.44) and the problem has been solved. Now it looks correct.

The problem is from the latest version (1.45), since as I said, I have downloaded the previous version and it works correctly for me again.

It seems the Beta fix was temporary as still, the Start 11 task bar links only work on 2 of 3 monitors.  Thanks for your efforts folks.
