[quote who="selesn777" reply="31" id="3979072"] Hello! It seems to me that it is generally losing its whole meaning to report on errors: the translation is not corrected in the 4th version, the problem with the call of the context menu on the lamps added in the menu labeling portable programs can not correct 6 versions already! Complete ignoring messages about this ... sad ... [/quote] Unfortunately nobody has been able to reproduce any issues with portable apps. The o

[quote who="corb06" reply="32" id="3979124"] Is there any possibility to make the folder icons bigger? They look out of proportion compared to the medium icons I have setup. And perhaps a folder icons should be in a square line up until its more than 5 apps in the folder? [/quote] I see what y

We use the OS icon cache hence not having a rebuild option. The OS maintains caches per size so this can cause things to look correct when viewing a folder but then look wrong in the menu due to different icon sizes being asked for. The folder menus actually reload icons from the OS cache on each open. A symlink should be invisible to Start11 and other apps so I am surprised if they are not working correctly but we will do some testing here to see if anything shows up.</

The issue here is the software is working as it was told to. There is a path to the third monitor from the main computer. Now why would it act like that I imagine you will ask, it is because Multiplicity is designed to allow you to have a computer turned off in which case it would skip large areas in the grid to find the next available machine, or you may have monitors which are aligned say right which you would still want to be able to access. In this case it is n

[quote who="adlerbd" reply="4" id="3979001"] A 2nd row increases the size (height) of the taskbar. I really don't like to scroll to get to buttons on the taskbar. You have to position the mouse pointer just right. This new overflow menu is really slick. You just click on the 3 dots (aka ellipsis) at the right end of the 1st row and up pops the additional overflow buttons. Click on the 3 dots again and it disappears. I used to limit the number of b

Do you use the OS virtual desktop like feature? We are aware this can happen on computers without even having Start11 installed suggesting an OS bug. There is a theory this is more likely to happen if you have seconds enabled on the taskbar too and some suggestion it is linked to that particular feature.

[quote who="RVSwick" reply="4" id="3978961"] I can reproduce this and it does not happen if you immediately kill start 11 and return to windows taskbar it's immediately fixed. (or if you restart explorer from start11 menu) It's very intermittent, but happens more often when switching between multi-monitor setups (eg when moving from desk a to desk b to desk c with a laptop) without rebooting or forcing explorer restart.

This is not a feature we implemented as we offer scrolling and multi line taskbars. So I can understand your request better, I would be interested in knowing what is it you like about the taskbar overflow menu over say scrolling or having a second row?

[quote who="larryt91311" reply="84" id="3978862"] I'm using Start11 to get the vertical taskbar and, in general, it is working great! I do have a question: The task bar in Windows 10 would put multiple system tray icons next to each other if the taskbar was wide enough. The wider the taskbar was, the more icons it would put side-by-side. The Start11 task bar is not doing that and so the icons are eating up more space in the task bar and leaving less space for the pinned and ac

[quote who="zhouxinze" reply="3" id="3978876"] "perhaps it is set to not allow switching when a fullscreen window is up for example." ——How to solve this? [/quote] Open Multiplicity settings on the primary, go to settings page on the left, click "Control switching based on mouse movement..." button. This has options to prevent switching. See if any are enabled.

[quote who="RaaGaan" reply="14" id="3978721"] Hello Basj, Thank you for your previous reply. I would like to clarify two points, as there seems to be a discrepancy between Stardock’s documentation and my experience. First, regarding WindowBlinds and Start11: Stardock states that “Start menu skinning requ

[quote who="LaraHCroft91" reply="16" id="3978650"] So, after doing what was suggested above, now About page shows me exactly as shown but in 11.07 when applying any skin, it sends me to Windows login page and I cannot get to desktop. So I had to do a lot of gymnastics to even get into safemode and uninstall Windowblinds through 3d party SW because uninstallation via Steam is not enough (yes, I have purchased WB via Steam). I tried three times already to install it back and I always end u
