How many displays do you have?

Do you have HDR mode enabled in Windows?

You need to be on Windows 11 23H2 or later

Right click on the left hand list and untick show suggested apps.

[quote who="IceFive7905" reply="3995368" id="541948"] Internal Reference: ODNT-12482 I tried unplugging all my external monitors and flipping taskbar features back on and the thumbnail preview was working. I then readded my HDMI monitor (monitor 4) and the thumbnail preview still worked on both. I then added 2 and 3 back in (both connected to a dock via USB-C connector) and the taskbar disappeared completely, so I restarted it using start11 options above

Tried messing with the settings but nothing changed. Tried to re-install and the issue still persisted. Currently using triple monitors. Unfortunately will have to keep "Let Start11 enhance the taskbar" disabled until this gets resolved. Windows 11 ver. 25H2 (OS

We were able to reproduce this issue and it has been addressed for the next update which should be 2.74. Thanks for letting us know.

The enhanced taskbar options are purely a Windows 11 thing as Windows 10 already handles that. This has always been the case in Start11. You should be able to change that setting in Windows itself. It will be called Use small taskbar buttons on Taskbar settings.

Items are grouped based on AppID, for this to stop working means the other explorer windows simply do not share the same ID which I have to confess I have never seen myself. What other explorer additions might you have running? Does this happen if you disable enhanced taskbar in Start11?

We do offer a Windows 10 style menu which would be the same as Win10 though. I will make sure the request is noted for future updates.

The clock freezing isn't a Start11 thing, it is a Windows thing. There are reports on the internet from users not running Start11 too and Start11 does not provide or paint the clock on the taskbar. We believe it is more common with seconds enabled on the taskbar clock which we do expose as a setting and have heard there is a link between heavy use of Task View and the issue (without S11) With regards to other issues, we would be interested in knowing more information on

Please update to Start11 2.73 beta which is available from your downloads on the Stardock Store as it should address this for you. The issue is triggered by the preview release of Windows 11 you are using.

Also which OS are you using. If it is Win10 then the problem may be different than if on Win11.

This would typically indicate a damaged .net install on your computer as it would be showing the activation popup at that point.

[quote who="castroGstar" reply="3994995" id="541899"] I don't have access to the beta downloads as I am just subscribed to start11 and not the full object suite. How can I get the beta to fix my issue? [/quote] If you visit store.stardock.com and find your downloads it should be listed I think?

[quote who="TedMcM" reply="3994993" id="541903"] OK... I posted that too soon. I had to reboot my computer after installation. So it appears that version 2.72 has now solved the problem of launching multiple instances of programs pinned to the taskbar. May be worth the price of the upgrade... Maybe. But I'm concerned that we have to pay for a bug fix. [/quote] Yes always reboot after an upgrade. This issue seems to be new to

The uptime information comes directly from the OS itself. It is not saved information. Are you sure your computer is not going into hibernation mode or sleep instead? If you open taskmanager and go to the performance tab, does the up time shown on the CPU page match DeskScapes?

[quote who="TedMcM" reply="3994970" id="541903"] I have encountered the same problem. Start11 essentially sees two instances of anything on the task bar, and if you move the icons, it may launch two different programs; the one you want plus the one that used to be in that position. I solved the problem by turning off "Let Start11 enhance the taskbar." That is, set the On/Off button to Off. Then the task bar will operate as you would expect. Definitely a p

I can reproduce the small additional gap when using search on Win7/Modern styles and this will be addressed in future builds.

That would be right. If Windows thinks you are using the keyboard it shows the underlines.

I don't think you have applied the registry key in the new build as without that nothing will have changed.

[quote who="BillH99999" reply="3994881" id="541552"] Thanks for the quick beta. This is better, but still not what Windows does. Windows does it by just Shift + Right Click. I'm just wondering why this was implemented as "hover over the icon and right click" rather than Shift + Right Click. [/quote] I think there is some confusion here? Right click over the icon produces the jump list. SHIFT + right click on the icon produces the menu

Can you post a screenshot of what you are seeing?

[quote who="Hreich1" reply="3994864" id="541828"] Yes it works when display fusion disabled [/quote] The new update mentioned just above this post should sort your issue too.
