Start11 Doesn't Work On Non-Primary Monitors

August 18, 2024 7:00:11 PM from Stardock ForumsStardock Forums

I just installed Start11 and it looks great. The problem though is that it only works on my primary monitor.

 

When I click the start button on either secondary or tertiary monitor, I get the regular ugly Windows 11 start menu.

 

Here's a screenshot from my tertiary monitor:

And one from my Primary monitor:

Hello,
Sorry to hear you are having issues. Need to know more on your system and issue.

  1. Windows 11 full version and OS Build number. Please use Winver.exe
  2. Start11 full version number.
  3. Do you have any other 3rd party application that change how your Start menu/taskbar work, such as: StartAllBack, Explorerpatcher, DisplayFusion etc installed?

Thank you.

  1. Windows 11 23H2 Build 22631.4037
  2. Start11 v2.08
  3. Yes I'm also using startallback as I like the way they handle the taskbar better.

Just as a test, if you uninstall StartAllBack, and test it, does the issue still appear?

I didn't have to uninstall. If I disable StartAllBack, i.e. tick this setting on and log out then log back in:

Then Start11 works on all monitors. With StartAllBack re-enabled, Start11 resumes to working only on the primary monitor while StartAllBack works on all monitors.

Great, glad that narrow it down to StartAllBack is conflicting with Start11. What you can do is try, uninstall Start11, reboot immediately after uninstall finished, re-download latest Start11 v2.10 Beta. Install it, reboot immediately again after installation finished. Retest and see if the issue resolve.

Thank you,

Just to confirm something, do you have Start11 Taskbar Enhance turn on or off? If it was on/enable, try disable it and see if that help.

On both 2.08 and 2.10 it detects that StartAllBack is handling this and auto disables it.

Do you have the latest StartAllBack version (3.8.4) installed?

Yes. For context, I upgraded my Windows from 10 to 11 (begrudgingly might I add) yesterday so all of the Windows 11 stuff I installed would be whatever the latest versions were when I downloaded them yesterday.
