[quote who="nerdile" reply="11" id="3975572"] Been using Stardock software for years and just found this forum. Feels like walking into a bar where everyone knows each other. Seems like a cool crowd. [/quote] Quarter century and counting.... It must be your shout .....;)

[quote who="Carlos Decena" reply="11" id="3974630"] I don't understand what your answering? It's obvious that they are not the same product but from a user perspective a dock at the top of my screen with autohide looks to work similarly. You stated that the reason Fences can't work properly (or as it should from a user perspective) is because "Fences is working on desktop level, hence there is no way to bring your desktop in-front of your Open Windows." Above I am reading that "Objectdoc

[quote]Sadly Microsoft is pushing the installation of Win11 on us even if we don't want or need it. [/quote] Resistance isn't futile. You can always say 'NO'. It's only been the last 6 months or so that original Windows 7 apps have been no longer supported and made inoperable as they evolved and only functioning still in 10 or beyond. All of them can be ignored anyway. This OS was first turned on in January, 2016. It outlived the M.2 dr

[quote]I have an active subscription to Object Desktop. It almost daily keeps asking me to re-register products that I've installed with my serial number, even though I did it a day or two before.

[quote who="pelaird" reply="8" id="3968888"] Outlook is a strange beast. I'm not sure MS uses conventional title bars in Outlook, which may be the issue with Groupy. I use Outlook and have it blocked in the settings. [/quote] Same for me here.... though for me I'm living in a time capsule... Windows 7 and Outlook 2007. I have a few older proggies which really hate Groupy but are likely almost unique to me.... so irrelevant...;)

[quote who="farrellts" reply="5" id="3968716"] Well I'm not sure about a nickname but my login was (and is again) "farrellts". [/quote] Ah...so I see... second use of the same 'nick'...2 separate account IDs... same email. I suspect you must have been one whose activity/history was lost in the crash. If you have a third party [and uncommon] program installed then I'd be seriously taking a closer look at that as the cause of the issues you are seeing...;)

[quote who="farrellts" reply="2" id="3968554"] It's because when I came in to make this post, my account was no longer there. I have no idea how or why. I've never done anything on this form to have my account deleted or suspended or whatever. Thanks for your sarcastic post. I'm looking for real answers not this kind of crap! [/quote] Can you let us know what your original account nick was so we can coordinate responses. Stardock's sites went dark for around a month

[quote who="XFaern" reply="4" id="3968106"] Yes, it does. We can mark this one as resolved. I reset my PC and it started working. Drastic solution but I felt like it had to be some kind of misconfiguration on my end. [/quote] Good to hear... [not about misconfiguration on your end] but that it's resolved...;)

[quote who="Ulysses Ulysses" reply="8" id="3966338"] Hi, where is this list of users that are lost in the crash. I have someone on a forum that is asking but can not post for possibly obvious reasons. [/quote] PM me the User name and I'll check the list for you. Probably a privacy issue to list them all publicly ...;)

[quote who="StarGazer1777" reply="21" id="3966145"] PS: Your "whacky" (your words, not mine), reminds so much of the Concord. That was a beautiful piece of Aeronautic! [/quote] It's a North American XB70 Valkyrie ... almost twice as fast as a Concorde... The 'whacky' bit is it's about the last plane imaginable likely to be used by the Thunderbirds Team [and not 'just' because there is only one surviving]. It was designed to supercruise riding its own shockwave.

One last time. Stardock's Devs do not want their programs to damage a user's system so work to ensure programs can co-exist without system failure. That has absolutely nothing to do with promoting the duplication of shell enhancements. It is about system stability. You SHOULD only apply one shell modification for 'Start', however, if you MUST use 2 at least you know Stardock's program will not brick your system. The same cannot be said for the second prog

On a 'helping note'. Stardock's Devs have clearly set a check code in place to determine if/when the user also has SAB installed. To therefore NOT brick your OS it would follow that SAB is installed first so Start 11 is aware of it when installed second. Other than that I simply would never use 2 at once as potentially 'stability' would be at risk with any updates/alterations to SAB if nothing else.

[quote who="eliminatrix64" reply="7" id="3965769"] the developers of Start11 are making a conscious and deliberate effort to actually ensure that both programs could be used concurrently without a loss of functionality in Start11. [/quote] Or a deliberate effort to try to protect users such as yourself from tanking your OS totally. Perhaps you can elucidate as to what efforts have been made on the part of StartAllBack for co-existing "nicely" with St
