Start11v2

Can't Update Windows Preview

February 25, 2025 1:48:00 PM from Stardock ForumsStardock Forums

I have Latest Win 11 Pro updates, and there is a Preview install Microsoft update.  It says I can't install due to Start11 not being compatible, so manual uninstall, which I did, and I still can't install.

I am attempting a Start11v2 reinstall.  Results:  re-Install and customize good.

I will reboot and try to install Win11pro preview again. 

Moved to Start Menu Products area.

Did you previously have a much older version of Start11 installed?

Or perhaps dual boot or a backup of an old install somewhere?

Microsoft have terrible logic for detecting if something is installed and it triggers on the most odd things sometimes.

Start11 V2.51 should be just fine with the updates.

I am attempting an Uninstall Start11 again, then remove Folders, ie: Is there a Uninstall fully tool?

Then upgrade to 24h2, then reinstall Start11v2.

Do know, maybe, for next time, you can use this guide to purge Start11: https://forums.stardock.com/505872/start11-support-faq#reinstalling.

Thank you,
