This isn't something Start11 can alter, whilst it would paint the icon for the taskbar when in enhanced taskbar mode (and only enhanced taskbar mode), it never paints the icon on the jumplist or provides the jumplist functionality. There are three possible reasons I can see : 1) Icon Cache corruption causing the OS to return the wrong icon to things that ask for it 2) You have created a shortcut to Teams which is using that icon. 3) A teams update (which happen

Being on such an old version of Windows could certainly be a factor especially if it fails to see updates. If you are stuck on 21h2 you will get worse security support than Windows 10 I think. How did you even end up on that version as Windows updating from Windows 10 should be installing something far newer. The other thing to check is if something has stopped the Start11 service from starting. Finally do you have anything else installed to give you say a Wind

Those strings are the ones Windows used for those shortcuts on Windows 7. On that OS the text is displayed always so those are the help text in a tooltip. For the Windows 10 menu there is no text always visible so I can see why it might not be as clear and we can look to tweaking things a bit.

[quote quoting="post"] I've had a persistent issue that Chrome apps pinned to the taskbar don't show the assigned icon, so I decided to go back to the Windows 11 taskbar which displays them correctly. Although Taskbar enhancement is disabled, it still loads whenever I restart, hibernate, lock, and some other random conditions. This requires restarting Windows Explorer to get the Win 11 taskbar back. The condition occurs on multiple computers with both Windows 11 Pro 24H2 and 25H2. [

Does it detect the clipboard contents and offer paste? Typically this would be a problem with firewall settings. The computer you are doing the paste from has to be able to connect to the other computer. So it would be a firewall issue on the computer which is the source of the clipboard data.

[quote who="Jakub Chalupa" reply="6" id="3981499"] Ok, thanks, that might be the problem, I only hibernate my PC. But like... Why on Earth should I reboot the whole computer to just apply some simple app setting? [/quote] Restarting explorer would also do the trick.

[quote who="Taomyn" reply="6" id="3981316"] Came here from my post here as I've been having this issue for over a year, well before the "incident". I also encounter adding new posts taking several minutes to complete. Hopefully someone can find the cause as it's quite frustrating. [/quote] I believe the slow forum issue should have been resolved this week.

[quote who="ndavalos76" reply="5" id="3981259"] After deleting the Group registry value then setting DelayedAutoStart to 1, delayed start works, it also has the desired effect of not starting until everything else has already loaded in the OS. This could have been an easy change on your end without users having

Build 27971 is a Canary channel Insider release of Windows. Like every other company we will offer zero formal support for that OS. I would imagine something is incompatible with whatever you are using to display videos and causing an issue. This is not normal.

[quote who="bluehawk19769274" reply="7" id="3981213"] Well, I tried the full screen, and although far from what I was aiming for, it is indeed workable. But, another problem surfaced. The software makes my PCs crash in a weird way, which forces me to reboot the PC. I verified it was multiplicity that causes the crash, by unloading the software, and getting a PC to run for several days without crashing. If I load it, it will cause a crash while the P
