Reply to Start11 cause any EDR/anti-virus alerts? in Start Menu Products WinCustomize Forums

[quote]Does Start11 trigger any security alerts in the way it hooks into the OS to mess with the taskbar? [/quote] No. However inferior AV products can signal 'false positives' due to their less-than-ideal management of their signature updates.

[quote who="Neil Banfield" reply="6" id="3979118"] Unfortunately this has never been reported to us before which is why it has not been addressed. I would imagine the number of people who have intentionally misaligned monitors like this is pretty small hence it never having come up before. We will see about tweaking it to have a setting to ignore large gaps in this situation for future updates. Thanks for letting us know. [/quote] That

[quote who="StorminNZ" reply="4" id="3979139"] It very clearly says "Unlock all of your applications?" [/quote] Perhaps it should say "Unlock Access to all your application/s downloads and updates" As that is what is meant. The Object Desktop Manager will then ask you to register whatever Programs you do download and install so as to keep track of each of those and the number of activations. Yes, The ODM 'key' does equally register each and every prog

Reply to A Change of Start in WinCustomize News JoeUser Forums

I don't use Win 11 and likely never will as I am fundamentally opposed to forced obsolescence demanding new hardware. If I were to go for a centered taskbar I'd rather the Start was center justified to emphasize that design orientation.

"The Crash of 25". Sounds like fun....[it wasn't]. Being 'mostly' on the outside looking in the wobbly steps the sites made to get back on their feet was pretty horrible to watch. T-Man and the rest of the grease monkeys need to be applauded for doing the impossible. If you 'only' frequent Wincustomize.com you might think all of it was pretty straight forward, but Stardock has significantly more than 1 or 2 sites - all interconnected. After 25 or s

Objectdock from stardock works exactly this way right now on my desktop. ( [/quote] No, we have not lost the ability. ObjectDock and Fences are 2 ENTIRELY different 'programs'.

Reply to ObjectDock long load times in Windows in Stardock Software Stardock Forums

Around the time of Windows 10 Microsoft introduced a forced delay process to stop third party programs from launching before Windows had fully completed its full boot process. This was very obvious when using Fences as the normal Windows sequence would see the desktop icons load early during the boot...but when Fences was used they would NOT display until MS allowed Fences to load AFTER the boot. The same issue can affect the ObjectDock loading which would suggest something el
