So what I have in my downloads exactly is a download link of Fences 2 which I upgraded to Fences 4. I did not purchase Fences 4 I upgraded Fences 2 to Fences 4. For whatever reason Fences 4 never ended up in "my downloads"but instead can only be found under "order history" which lists a "key" and a download link above it that says Fences 4 but is actually just Fences 5 I am not sure why it behaves this way because when I upgraded start 11 to start 11v2, I do have both of the links in

[quote who="DrJBHL" reply="5" id="3910454"] Quoting PhoenixRising1, reply 4 This is the only way I found to get Fences 4 back currently Should be in your account: Your avatar (top bar)>downloads> Object Desktop Manager tab>View Individual Downloads. [/quote]
[quote who="DrJBHL" reply="18" id="3910448"] Where do you see a $30 upgrade? I see $9.99 $8.99. https://www.stardock.com/products/fences/ [/quote] That is for one year doc, you dont own software doing that. Look at the section for permanent license. It costs 30 dollars

[quote who="ljferdinand" reply="14" id="3910437"] I didnt cry at Start11V2 as i thought that release was balanced with amazing new features and amazing pricing for new comers and upgrades. For me 10% discount for upgrades is rubbish SD need to come better than that. Fences with upgrade discount is £27.68 i be blunt i would have paid that for Start11V2 but im finding it impossible to persuade myself to buy this. THe difference between Fences 4 & 5 is minimal as

If you scroll down a bit there is a link that says "need a permanent license, click here"
[quote who="basj" reply="11" id="3910414"] Please refer here on your first question : https://support.stardock.com/space/SHC/1544388616/Stardock+Software+Subscriptions. For the second one, hopefully Support or Dev will come along and answer it soon. Thank you, Basj, Stardock Community Assistant [/quote] Thanks Basj That clears things up for me. Unfortunately Fences 5 is priced too high at this time
In regards to the annual subscription 1. Will this behave similarly to OD subscriptions as to where we still keep Fences 5 but no longer receive updates or will it cease to be accessible without an ongoing subscription? 2. Should we expect a longer development window for Fences 5 and yearly updates to its service?
I feel Fences could really use tabs at the header section in this release. Especially with folder portals
I also have a ryzen 7 5800 cpu with windows 11 23h2 so that can be ruled out for the issue My only other guess would be maybe start 11 v2 doesn't like a certain customization you have or a certain pin you have to the start menu or taskbar. You could try playing around a bit on this. For example if you have a custom start button maybe start 11 just isn't liking it. 23h2's biggest changes that may affect start 11v2 seem to be the taskbar. I have noticed myself that start
[quote who="morgs83" reply="12" id="3909869"] Hi guys, Update. I have installed Windows H23 and upgraded to Start11. Seems to be working fine so far. Will get back to you if anything changes for the worse. Cheers for the help! [/quote] I am glad we were able to help! 23h2 should also feel like a pretty big update in of itself
[quote who="Supremacy2k" reply="19" id="3910150"] I already tried a clean boot, with everything disabled. Same result. I also tried switching the stardock start11 service to run off of the administrator account, didn't change a thing. On this boot i checked eventviewer again, no warning or errors in Diagnostics-Performance -> Operational logs. [/quote] 1. Am I understanding correctly that this problem is only on version 2 and not on version 1 of
[quote who="pelaird" reply="8" id="3910063"] Example: If you right click on the Start11 menu and select New>Pin installed application, the resulting menu will scroll instead of a giant fly-out menu. [/quote] Thanks, Now I see the change and it does make the menu look a lot better too in my opinion
[quote who="pelaird" reply="5" id="3910031"] Added the Registry String S11_AlwaysScrollMenus with value set to 1; and it works great. Added the Registry String S11_MenuMode; tried all the values (0,1,2) with no change in the context menus. [/quote] I am not sure I understand what always scroll is supposed to change? I can confirm adding string value "s11_MenuMode does not change context menu. I also do not see a pre existing key by that name as the changel
[quote who="JLFItzpatrick" reply="64" id="3909524"] The right click functionality is not working with these newly created pinned menu folders. It still works with all other Taskbar items. I can move them around in the Taskbar, and they work brilliantly, but right clicking them does not bring up any menu on these items. [/quote] Pelairds screen shot is exactly what I am seeing as well You have to right click the pinned menu folder and then right click on the folder in
[quote who="pelaird" reply="5" id="3909464"] Phoenixrising1, I know this is a little off topic, but do you know what "Animate rounded corner changes" is all about? [/quote] There is a subtle transition animation when you have rounded corners 'on' [for no maximized windows] but 'off' for [maximized windows].
From what I understand any laptop upgraded to 32 gigs would boost this games performance on large maps. I would go as far as to say 32 is the new 16. That alone is a worth while upgrade. Gaming laptops are pretty fun but there are things to consider when purchasing one. The most important thing to look at is of course the gpu. Most games sit very comfortably at a 3060 gpu but not all 3060 laptop gpus are created equal. The biggest thing to look at is its max wattage as the power makes
I do not believe the floating taskbar works when you have auto hide task bar selected. Also, it may not work if you have explorerpatcher installed although I have not actually tested that one. Additionally there are two settings in screen shot #2 {resize when taskbar have no maximized] and [resize when taskbar has maximized]
[quote who="Neil Banfield" reply="41" id="3909297"] That would seem to be working correctly. Icons have to be a multiple of the smallest line. So adding text means the lines are taller so one thats 2x the height will now be taller. [/quote] The resizing looks pretty good with the Windows 10 theme. But I feel the sizing scheme on the Windows 11 themes increases a bit too much regardless of if text is used or not for the icons. Going from small to medium is a pretty big jump i
The y offset creates the floating taskbar affect. Also note that you must be using start 11 v2 upgrade.
Stevie, it looks like you are on an older version of start 11 v2 in that screen shot. There should be an update available. Go to [about] and select [check now]
You are going to want to remove that screen shot. You shouldn't share that info with the public
I don't see start 11 and startallback playing nice together any time soon, if ever. However Start 11v2 is in active development now. If you want to request new features added to the enhanced taskbar on start 11 there is a chance it gets added that way.
[quote who="pelaird" reply="87" id="3908971"] No. This did not happen when rounded taskbar was enabled, but a few times the taskbar shrunk vertically and shifted above the bottom of the screen when changing back and forth between different settings within the Enhanced taskbar settings panel. I'll try to reproduce this tomorrow. [/quote] Just to double check. There are two [when rounded taskbar] is [enabled] check marks. One is for [no maximised windows] and the other is for
