Yes that fixed the problem, many thanks. Steve

1: Win 11 version 23H2 OS Build 22631.3737 2: Start 11 version 2.08 3: Menu = Modern Style 4: No Windowblinds 5: No other apps affecting Start Menu, taskbar and/or explorer.exe

When I use the search box at the bottom of the Start 11 start menu, before I can complete the search all the icons disappear from the taskbar, it becomes blank, then a few seconds later it repopulates at normal size before reverting to the smaller size I have configured in Start 11 settings. I get the feeling it's some kind of reset and rebuild, but why does a search trigger this unwanted effect?

Maybe it should judging by the number of people asking about problems showing all tray icons with Windows 11 - a missed business opportunity?

Thanks for the suggestion but I have been a user of your products for several years, including Start 11.

Windows 11 resets some sliders set to show particular app icons in the system tray. The traditional method of ticking "show all icons" does not work as Windows 11 seems to reset certain system tray icons, at random? Does Start 11 offer any solution to this problem as I get fed up enabling app icons every time I start Windows 11?

That's great I just missed spotting that option - there are so many! Thanks Steve

After upgrading from W10 with Classic Start to W11 with Start11 I miss the fly-out of control panel items that happened with Classic Start when hovering mouse over Control Panel, is there a configuration that shows this, or can it be added in future upgrades? Thanks Steve
