Start11 doesn't display at startup

October 26, 2025 2:09:47 PM from Stardock ForumsStardock Forums

Hey,

I bought start11 and since the new update the Start11 taskbar doesn't display at startup. The app is active since once I restart the file explorer it's fine but I don't want to restart file explorer each time I boot up even with task planner

Windows 11 24H2
Start 11 2.55

Hello,
Sorry to hear you are having issues. Perhaps it was not installed properly. Please try, uninstall Start11, reboot immediately (important), download latest version available (v2.56 Beta) in your account product download page: https://store.stardock.com/myaccount/products. Install it, reboot immediately again. Retest it and report back.

Thank you,
Basj,

Hello,

I uninstalled Start11, reboot my computer then reinstalled it and reboot again but still doesn't change this behavior.
However I can't download the beta 2.56, I don't have any products in myaccount/products, I bought 5 keys throught this account, and I have the reciept in my order, that's all.

Thank you for your time

Okay

The product is now shown in my product.
Unfortunately, after downloading, installing the beta v2.56 and rebooting my computer. The issue still persists.

Please check few things.

  1. Check if you have accidentally enable Autohide taskbar in Windows taskbar setting?
  2. Check if you have any other 3rd party application which also changed how your taskbar and Explorer work. This might lead to conflict.

Thank you,
