Start11 - Windows Button (on Keyboard) No Longer Opens Start11 Start Menu

Icon on Taskbar still works, but Windows button on keyboard opens default Windows 11 start menu

May 30, 2023 6:38 PM from

I just updated Windows 11 22H2 to the latest version today (22621.1778) and now the Windows button on my keyboard no longer opens Start11, but defaults to the default Windows 11 start menu.

If I click on the Windows icon in the Taskbar, Start11 opens as it should, but for some reason the Windows button does not.

I'm assuming there is a setting in the registry that was changed in the latest Windows update, but I don't know which registry to edit.

Hoping there is a fix soon, this is driving me crazy!

Cheers

Hello,
Sorry to hear you are having issues. If you have not using Start11 V1.45 Beta, yet. Please do this. Uninstall Start11. Reboot immediately after uninstall finished (important), Download and install Start11 V1.45 Beta: https://forums.stardock.com/518875/. Reboot again and retest it.

Thanks
