I haven't used WB in a while but since Windows 11 does not support Curtains I'd thought I'd return to using it. I downloaded the lastest and an old error has popped up again. After applying a WB theme, the dream desktop image remains blurred. A reboot fixes the issue. Alternatively, I can apply a static background, then apply the dream. It works but Explorer crashes at first and the WB disappears from the system tray.

Is there an official Start 11 v. 2 bug thread? The initial release had problems with Start links as menus, for example Universal Apps. I'd get an error of something like "access denied". The first update fixes that issue but appears to introduce general system instability issues. Everything seems slower. The MS Photos app opens when you double click a photo, but the window is empty. Alt-tab, instead of showing small images of the running apps shows just a t
Downloaded and installed but after the rebooot I get the message "this email address not valid for this product key". I know I entered the information correctly. Any ideas? I have an Object Desktop license. Update: I reinstalled the old Start 11, then reinstalled version2 amnd this time I was able to activate it. Strange! But good news anyway.

Seems if I have several windows open at a time, the Start menu, which should be centered is slight left adjusted. Seems to start after opening the eighth window. It gets worse with each additional app window, moving further left. I only have a single monitor. I can't tell if it's app or only window specific but I believe it's just the number of windows.

Ok thank you. The command line worked but I'll keep the other method in mind.
In the past, Stardock apps all had a checkbox in settings to start at boot time. I don't see that anywhere in Curtains, nor do I see it in Task Manager Startup Apps or the registry Windows>Current Version>Run. How do I stop it automatically running? I also no longer see that checkbox for Deskscapes. UPDATE: I found the command line to disable Curtains and it works. But where is the checkbox?

I removed Groupy a while ago because it was combining windows when I didn't want it to. (My fault, but still annoying.) Just installed Groupy 2, to play with it again.

[quote who="JMBWITHCATS1" reply="6" id="3892482"] I figured out what's going on... When I press the windows key on my keyboard, my curated Start 11 menu doesn't come up, but when I press the paw on the taskbar it does. There's a setting to make sure the windows key is utilizing the start 11 menu, right? [/quote] That's not the problem. The recent Windows update broke Start 11.

I haven't had any system issues but it messes with Windows 11 dark mode since dialog and window appearance will be changed by WB.
