UPDATE: Windows 10 Insider Preview update, (Mar 25, 2016), to Build 14295, seems to have fixed the multiple monitors/snipping tool issue. However, I still need to Unload Windows Blinds to run Camtasia Recorder.

Curious to learn of others experiences with this: Using 'Old/New Explorer' to disable the hideous Explorer Ribbon and show the classic Command Bar; there are many WB themes that won't render the command bar properly. Just wondered if others experienced similar or, if it's inherent or I'm missing something. Please share your thoughts.
I've got a bit of a different issue: It seems that Universal Apps that you are or have been signed into, do not stay pinned to the 'Start10' Menu! Still testing scenarios out, but it seems peculiar.

[quote quoting="post"] I have looked all over the internet for an answer and a lot of people get this confused. Can you tell me if the setting I am looking for is in Start10, Windows 10 or Word? I drag files onto the Word Icon on the task bar to pin it to word so when you hover over word in the task bar a list of pinned and recent files appears. It seems I can only pin 9 files onto word. I don't care about the recent files but would like to pin more files to Word. D
[quote who="ASARussell" reply="9" id="3627256"] I'm sorry, but I don't see how setting up a new link to the admin tools will solve the problem of the right-hand panel width. Please explain your logic. [/quote] Doesn't solve it, it's just a work around. At least with a custom link, you can rename it what you wish. See previous screenshot.
[quote who="ASARussell" reply="7" id="3627226"] I have tried different themes. All of them exhibit the same problem, all of them except the Default theme. I was wrong in an earlier post where I said the problem doesn't occur in a virtual machine, it does occur there. Rebooting the VM causes the start menu to display the same reduced width right-hand side pane. [/quote] Seems to be intrinsic in Windows 10, maybe make a custom link to Admi
[quote who="ASARussell" reply="5" id="3627216"] Yes, the screen is set to 1920x1080, its native resolution, and I have set the Use large Icons off in Start10. The problem is not with the left-hand side of the start menu, but the right. I don't understand what changes when I reboot the machine. The start menu is perfect up to the time I reboot. I do not have fast start enabled. Thanks for all your help, I appreciate it. [/quote] Hmmm..., Maybe try a dif
If you have problems with some elements in Explorer right click Context Menus displaying improperly: http://screencast.com/t/RQk489eDql this could be a fix: http://www.askvg.com/windows-10-tip-restore-classic-context-menu-in-explorer-and-desktop/
Is your resolution set to native? Also, try uncheck 'Use large icons':
I had similar problems, but I reset dpi and text size back to default, now is okay.

[quote who="phly97" reply="11" id="3626807"] what about making a firefox addon specifically for Windowblinds 10 integration? There are plenty of FF extensions that integrate with Windows applications. [/quote] That would be nice! :)

[quote who="Neil Banfield" reply="1" id="3626521"] Which tool are you using as it should not be doing so. [/quote] Camtasia Studio, Greenshot ScreenShot Tool, Windows Snipping tool, you name it! I just Upgraded to Windows 10 Insider Build 14291, so there may be 'inside' issues! ;) Lemme mess around for a few days. Thanks for your replies! :)
With Windows Blinds 10, any screen capture software or 'snipping' tools makes Explorer crash! :(
Nope, doesn't work. It's like Firefox has built in an immersive UI! :(
