Reply to Uninstaller doesn't work in Start8 Stardock Forums

You do NOT delete programs from your computer. You uninstall them using the uninstaller which you will find in: Control Panel > Programs and Features. Look for Start8, then double click it to uninstall. If you have previously tried to delete the files or folder, then you will have to reinstall Start8 prior to uninstalling it correctly.

Reply to Does Start8 modify explorer.exe? in Start8 Stardock Forums

[quote who="myonno" reply="2" id="3323128"] Yes, Avira says the file "C:\Windows\explorer.exe" was found with suspicious malware "HEUR/Modified.SystemFile". [/quote] If you Google: HEUR/Modified.SystemFile you will see that it has nothing to do with Start8. But a strange thing is that it is only Avira that seems to report this. Not sure why this is, but I'll let you investigate it more.

One thing you could do, Neil is to add the shortcut to the Start Menu along with the Start8 shortcut. I added it manually.

Reply to Bug Report: Right-clicking on Explorer causes Start8 to glitch in Start8 Stardock Forums

I tested it on my computer. The Start Button does flash when I press the Windows key, but it doesn't hide itself. But I wouldn't expect anything different considering that I still have a context menu open.

Exiting Windows 8 Menu After Using The Windows 8 Menu Shortcut From Start8 Restores Minimized Apps in Start8 Stardock Forums

If I open the standard Windows 8 Menu using the Windows 8 Menu shortcut in Start8, the Windows 8 menu opens fine. But when I go up to the top left corner of the screen to go back to the Desktop, if I have an application minimized on the Taskbar it restores that application over the top of the Desktop. This bug has been evident for awhile now.

Reply to Start8 1.1 seems to change power settings in Start8 Stardock Forums

For the record, my power options stayed the same after upgrading to v1.1. No problem here. Could it be something else you installed?

Reply to Start 8 1.1 install over the top? in Start8 Stardock Forums

Drag & drop is working fine for me with v1.1. And, by the way. I always install over the top. It would be a shoddy app if you had to uninstall every time before upgrading.

What Start8 Style Do You Use? in Start8 Stardock Forums

Reply to Start8 1.09 BETA Changelog in Start8 Stardock Forums

[quote who="DRHodgson" reply="30" id="3294268"]There seems to be some confusion over the version number with this beta. The original v1.09 beta actually shows as v1.1, presumably v1.10, beta and this one, despite being referred to as v1.09.2 beta, actually shows as v1.1 beta 2 in Start8's config About menu!!! So which is it?[/quote] Yeah, I have been confused, too.

Reply to License Question in Start8 Stardock Forums

I'm still not even sure myself, mate. So, good question. I have bought a license for 2 computers, so far. Is it 1 license per computer? And I hope they have fixed the licensing debacle up where you couldn't buy more than 1 license per account unless you sent it to another account as a gift.
