Can't delete groups, tabs, pages

In Start11 v2 I am unable to delete groups, tabs and pages.  I was able to do it once, but then the functionality stopped working.

I'm using the Windows 11 Style.

Any ideas what the problem is here?  Bug?

Are you saying the right click context menu no longer appears? If that's the case, something has gone wrong. Try restarting Explorer, and if that doesn't work, try restarting your computer.

When I right click, the context menu appears, but when I click on "delete" (a page or a tab), the confirmation pop-up doesn't appear and nothing is deleted.  I tried restarting Explorer and that didn't help.  Since this problem is intermittent, I would not want to have to start my computer every time I needed to delete and it didn't work.

I am using the Windows 11 style, but it happens with the others as well.

Any other ideas?

Does Stardock support respond in this forum?

Are you using something like X mouse so the window under your mouse activates?

Updating from V2.03 to V2.05 seems to have fixed it for me for now.

Tested some more, now the icons won't group up anymore:

The group also still doesn't show up if you want to pin an item directly:

This isn't consistent though:

I've added some more information to my last reply, but since this seems to be a separate issue is it more useful to put this in a separate post?

Glad it's being looked into because I had this problem too of not being able to delete a group. Delete group context menu does nothing. Luckily I had a backup to revert to which is a nice feature that has been added. I'm using Win 11 Pro style btw.

It is worth updating to the beta 2.0.6.2 update as that has numerous tweaks.

I am sorry, I thought the delete group issue was resolved for you before? What changed?

I started this thread back in November 2023.  I'm on the latest version (2.06), and I'm still having issues with deleting tabs and groups.  It is occasionally intermittent, but mostly not working.

Sorry to hear you still having issue on this. So from what I read above Neil was asking you for more information,

Please reply to that one so we can move forward for your issue and also currently the latest version is V2.07 (Beta), please update to that version and report back.

I'm having the same issue. Can't delete groups or tabs in v2.11

 

but I can drag all single groups to another group so they add as tabs. Then I can delete the entire group. So, seems like the problem is I can't delete a SINGLE tab from a group, or delete a group that does not have any tabs.
