Start11 v2 on Steam

Will it update for free?

from Stardock Forums

I have a question: if I buy Start11 on Steam now (it's currently version 1.46), will my app be updated to version 2.0 for free, or will I have to buy the new version again?

Hello,

No, if you purchase Start11 v1 now from Steam, you will need to purchase again when Start11 v2 is available on Steam, but, from what I understand, it might be with some discount. I believe, if you must purchase it via Steam, it is best just to wait for Start11 v2to be available on Steam. It should be available on Steam soon.

Thank you.

Hello,

We have no firm date when Start11 v2 will be available on Steam. 

We will have more information in the coming weeks.

My 30-day trial will expire in 1 day.

I will temporarily have to return to the old START menu built into Windows 11:thumbsdown:

Steam has regional prices ($4 vs $7), besides, I like to buy software there. So please, hurry.

 

Thanks!

Steam can have regional pricing if we enable it.  However, it is not likely that we will for Start11 v2 as we have not done so for any Software product.

And yet, it’s more profitable for me to buy your product on Steam (without mentioning that this is also more convenient method to buy soft for me)

The product on Steam is Start11v1 not v2.  This is one reason for the price difference.
