Make sure this folder exists. C:\Users\ your user name \AppData\Local\Stardock\DownloadedDreams which stores all the Static background you have downloaded from within DeskScapes. If your go up one level to C:\Users\ your user name \AppData\Local\Stardock there should be a folder called DSCache which stores the Latest backgrounds. Check these folders and report back with your findings.

Thank goodness we still have the ability to change these icons on the taskbar and start menu.
I did a quick edit of them and I do think they have potential.
So, what else can Microsoft do other than fix the bugs in Windows 24H2? Anyway, what do you think about the new icons?
This phenomenon only seems to happen when I have an Explorer windows open and then open a Control Panel that opens in an Explorer window. An example is opening the Downloads folder and then opening the Reliability Monitor. It doesn't happen when these are opened in the reverse order. Windows 11 Pro - 23H2 - 22631.5189; Groupy2 - 2.2.0.1
Glad you got it sorted.
Are the scaling factors different on each monitor? Make sure the Windows setting for the mouse size is set to 1, and then use the CursorFX settings to set the size of the cursor.
Start11v1 and v2 are different licenses. One won’t work for the other. If you have Object Desktop, that will work for both.
Typically, they should. Start11v2 has so many new options, you might want to consider rebuilding your Start11 menu. Some folks have had issues installing V2 over V1, so I would recommend uninstalling V1, Restart, install V2, Restart. Its up to you. You can export your settings from Regedit. Open Regedit and navigate to "Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Stardock\Start8" and right-click the Start8 folder and select Export.
Okay thanks. Now check the settings in Start11 at Taskbar > Enhanced taskbar settings > Taskbar button combining and let me know how you have that set. Then, check Taskbar > Enhanced taskbar settings > Taskbar button appearance. Do you have "Always hide text on buttons regardless of group state" checked? I have found that if you have "Never combine taskbar buttons" selected, with "Always hide text on buttons regardless of group state" checked, it will pro
Do you have the Enhanced taskbar enabled? Also, what versions of Windows and Start11 do you have installed?
[quote who="bdsams" reply="10" id="3965994"] Try checking again, we are starting to turn some of this functionality back on and this should be working now...however, we are still doing some cleanup of the data. [/quote] Fantastic! Thanks for getting this working.
[quote who="3java3z" reply="6" id="3965987"] Gave it a shot, tried the old login within a private window. No dice. [/quote] Hopefully Doc will get it sorted for you.
Try logging in with a new Private window and see if that works.

This is good information. Thanks I am unable to test this issue as I am not running 24H2 yet, but hopefully Basj will be along and can test this further. I will bring this thread to his attention.
[quote who="Fpefpe" reply="4" id="3965896"] thanks for the info --- I got a reference number, but no conformation email --- is that the way the system works?? [/quote] To answer your question, yes. When you submit a ticket, you are put in a response que. You should receive an email with a reply from support within a few days. They are really busy behind the scenes right now trying to restore everything.
Does it update correctly in the System Tray? Do you have Teams pinned to the taskbar?
Thanks Sed. [e digicons]:grin:[/e]
Open the Fences Config App and select the layout tab. Under Layout Backups at the top, click "Save/Restore a backup," click the most recent backup, and then click Restore backup. If this doesn't work, or you haven't been auto saving daily backups, try restarting your computer and see if that works.
What version of Windows? Please use winver.exe
Is your current license for ver. 1 or ver. 2 of Start11? There would be an upgrade path from ver. 1 to ver. 2, but that would be for your current license, If you need a second license, that would have to be purchased, but you could upgrade to a Multi-Device license (5 installs). Click the small blue "Upgrade" link on the purchase page. https://www.stardock.com/products/start11/ for the Multi-Device purc
Start11 does not control the Taskbar date format. It does have the ability to add seconds to the clock. The clock and date format are controlled by Windows.
