In the test account, with all services and startup apps disabled (excepting one AV-related startup that wouldn't disable...part of ESET NOD32), with the default-created fences, launching Firefox from a fence was instantaneous without Peek, and took 18s with Peek.

But, notably, when I installed, I didn't let it clear the settings as I wasn't keen to recreate my Fences configuration. If there's a way to export or duplicate the confi
[quote quoting="post"] When I first tried Start11, before I paid for it, I created a taskbar pin to a custom filtered folder called "Utest Projects" and used regex inclusion and exclusion rules so it would show folders and apps within "Utest Projects" that I need to quickly open. It all works fine, but one of the sub-folders called "Today", no longer opens when I select "Today" within the menu that appears when I tap the taskbar icon. I use the "Today" sub-folder for automatio

I use a cheap keyboard/mouse receiver so Windows thinks there is an interface device attached, but I do not have any local access to the PCs and their monitors are remote via fiber optic HDMI, so accessing them directly to restart the service is not trivial.
