Reply to Start 11 strange black block in the top left corner in Start Menu Products Stardock Forums

I tried both the uninstall/reinstall, and purge and reinstall, neither of which helped. I ended up doing a hard uninstall by removing the Start8 folder in the Stardock registry settings at "Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Stardock\Start8", deleting all the Start11 folders from Program Data, App Data>Local, and Program Files (X86).
