Reply to Start11 upgrade to V2 in Start Menu Products Stardock Forums

Typically, they should. Start11v2 has so many new options, you might want to consider rebuilding your Start11 menu. Some folks have had issues installing V2 over V1, so I would recommend uninstalling V1, Restart, install V2, Restart. Its up to you. You can export your settings from Regedit. Open Regedit and navigate to "Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Stardock\Start8" and right-click the Start8 folder and select Export.

Reply to Taskbar Icons Change in Stardock Software Stardock Forums

Okay thanks. Now check the settings in Start11 at Taskbar > Enhanced taskbar settings > Taskbar button combining and let me know how you have that set. Then, check Taskbar > Enhanced taskbar settings > Taskbar button appearance. Do you have "Always hide text on buttons regardless of group state" checked? I have found that if you have "Never combine taskbar buttons" selected, with "Always hide text on buttons regardless of group state" checked, it will pro

Reply to Cannot see Fence Titlebar in Fences Stardock Forums

Open the Fences Config App and select the layout tab. Under Layout Backups at the top, click "Save/Restore a backup," click the most recent backup, and then click Restore backup. If this doesn't work, or you haven't been auto saving daily backups, try restarting your computer and see if that works.

Reply to Supported Windows 11 versions in Start Menu Products Stardock Forums

Is your current license for ver. 1 or ver. 2 of Start11? There would be an upgrade path from ver. 1 to ver. 2, but that would be for your current license, If you need a second license, that would have to be purchased, but you could upgrade to a Multi-Device license (5 installs). Click the small blue "Upgrade" link on the purchase page. https://www.stardock.com/products/start11/ for the Multi-Device purc

Reply to AI Skinning? in OS Customization Stardock Forums

Throughout History, most new technology has been perceived as evil at first. Some even feared the telephone when it was invented. Some doubted its practical utility, seeing it as a mere novelty rather than a serious communication tool. The same was true when the Internet was first introduced. So, who among you can go a week without access? The Stardock server outage has been a huge reminder of how much we rely on it. <span class="pjBG2e" data-cid="6857d93c-a0f3-45db-be8a-512a965bde56"

[quote who="AeroPurple" reply="28" id="3965343"] Yes! And that's precisely why AI is the worst thing to use here - it literally can't feel emotions, and cannot create anything meaningful without copying already existing material. [/quote] AeroPurple, you know I respect you, and your art has given me much happiness, but I have to disagree. AI is a tool, just like your paint brushes. It's the user (artist) that controls the image on the canvas. The artist imagines some

Reply to Animated wall paper is not working in DeskScapes Stardock Forums

[quote who="robk39" reply="7" id="3965337"] Try gorgeous lake sunset by cyberslober [/quote] Seems to work fine here. Does it run for a few seconds and then hang, or it just won't run. Have you tried restarting Explorer? Also, what version of Windows (use winver.exe) and DeskScapes are you running? What version of the Nvidia driver are you running?
