Unfortunately I am a new user (only 2 weeks now) and do not have the previous versions. Is there any place I can get the older versions? It is a standard practice to offer the older versions as some users might prefer to go back.

As it seems this is not going to be solved and I have problems with three software so far: Start10, WB and CursorFX as a last resort where could I find the older versions of these to see if they can fix my issues.

Reinstalling window! This is a new laptop barely two weeks old. Sleep function is working correctly without start10 and at least one other person has seen the same effect of start10 albeit at a lower magnitude. "Typically that means it is asking for the wrong colour part from WB". Wish I knew which part and if it could be changed by me (user).

Top picture my current start menu with WB active, middle one with WB unloaded and the buttom one is WB style setting. In my current open-shell-menu style it seems that only the text are affected, in other styles the colours get affected too. <img src="https://cdn.stardock.us/forums/70/13/701

I have done those steps before which did not help. The effect of WB on open-shell-menu is quite obvious and I think should be repeatable on all system as WB is trying to skin (or change the colour settings) of the start menu. The reset thing and other reports, even in a few posts above (reply #6) Basj suggests that on his/her system it makes going to sleep 5s slower whilst on mine is more like 30s or never. What I do not understand why start10 should interfere

Any development at all?

The display is tuned off in a few seconds but machine does not go into sleep as is evident by some of the keyboard lights (for example CAP lock) are still on. Sometimes it takes 30s and some time a few minutes and sometimes never. The only way I can turn the machine off when the display is off is by pressing the on/off button for a long time. This is a new laptop I am using I have reprogrammed HD to the initial state i.e. not many software installed; uninstalled start10 it goes

Open-shell-menu is a free program that is being used by many. WB does interfere with its colouring scheme. I wonder if it is this option in WB (setting menu): "use the task bar and start menu from this style: (UIS2/1" that causes the problem, as there is no option to just add it to the task bar and not the start menu as well. I hope this is fixed soon as this configuration (WB + Open-shell-menu) is working for me.

Is it possible for windowsblinds not to skin the start menu so that open-shell-menu can properly colour the start menu whilst the sleep problem is sorted out?

Any News? I had to uninstall Start10. Now I am using open-shell-menu and it works fine with hardly any latency entering sleep mode.

Two methods: 1- selecting Sleep in the windows start menu 2- pressing the laptop ON/OFF button that is configured for sleep Both were behaving the same, but after several uninstallation and reinstallation: 1 - is still the same i.e. it takes more than 30s to go to sleep and sometimes never does. The display turns off but the machine does not go into sleep. 2- for some reason 2 has started working now. However, the time to sleep has changed fr

Hope they come back soon as I am uninstalling Start10 from my system. For me it goes from 3sec to at least 30sec and sometimes a lot more.

Hi, I have just installed start10 on my new windows 10 pro laptop. However, when I try to put my laptop to sleep it takes about 30s to enter the sleep mode. If I uninstall start10 it goes into sleep mode in less than 3s. Is there any option I can set for it not to interfere with the sleep mode? Thanks
