Reply to Start11 v2 Beta (2.74) Feedback in Start Menu Products Stardock Forums

Installed 2.73 on a new Laptop and was hoping 2.74 would fix my problem. Every time I start an app from the shortcut on the taskbar, the moment i minimize it disappears as active (indicator vanishes). Next time I click the icon while the app is still minimized, a new instance is started. Is that a setting somewhere or a bug? Never experienced this before.

I think after a long time i might have something again. With a little help from AI. Lots of prompts to get an iconset like this. Teaser, there are more. WIP. '

I once had this and Start 11 just was not activated in it's settings. Of course this is german, but look for control and 'click in start`' or something. Also Start 11 and StartAllBack or Windhawk don`t come along together.

Well, I am back. Turned out Macs don't fit my workflows well. ;-) I was tired of giving permissions to do things for every app I wanted to use (and to do so again after updates), so I sold all the stuff and got myself a decent windows laptop and workstation again. As a plus, Macs have a nice resale price. ;-)

I am nearly finished with creating one purely with AI (Chat GPT). It has a learning (and patience) curve getting the prompts right, but I will let You know, how it works. (Yes, I am back to Windows and PCs). If this works out, I will try Rainmeter also.

Time to let go and for Goodbye in Community WinCustomize Forums

I've been here an a subscriber since 2001 (user 51 of the freshly new Wincustomize) and used Stardock programs since Windowblinds 1.2. Seen many innovative things Stardock has done (one of the most profilic ones was the pityful abondoned DesktopX) and even more great skins by most talented skinners, most of whom just vanished unfortunately. I had my highs and lows with Stardock due to the direction some things and programs and support went, which are all past me of course. <

"Lack of plentiful and reliable energy is one of the top issues facing Germany. Renewables are unable to provide reliable energy needed to power heavy industry." Still nonsense and plain right-wing propaganda that is wide spread. Also NOBODY propagates here, that we can do only with renewables (at the moment).

"A great example of this is Germany which relied on cheap Russian natural gas. When the Ukraine war forced them to give up that source it devastated their economy and they're still trying to recover. " Nope, sorry. Still going relatively strong because we set up alternative sources very fast. The reason why for example the automobile companies struggle ist that they are still living in the vintage oil-age and have no decent electric cars.

Great release, guys. You can virtually have a modern tabbed dock now. :-) Working great for a beta. Cosmetical Monk here: The cursor change on mouse over on a tab should be different to that change/edit cursor.

There where times when this site used to be sort of a tech site with tech driven people. It mostly has grown to old or not so old men lamenting about the 'good' old times of windows 7/10 and keeping their steam driven tech as long as possible. ;-P

Reply to Windows10 and Windows11 in dark mode - only bad themes found in Stardock Games WinCustomize Forums

It is not the skinners fault though. There are parts of Windows that WindowBlinds cannot skin/recolor any more. So You get a whole inconsistent look. Black headers ond dark background in the headers in explorer as seen above is just one example.

Recently Installed NEVER up to date in Start Menu Products WinCustomize Forums

Hi, when setting up new software (new pc here, lots of installs) 'recently installed items' and even 'all apps' in Start 11 are NEVER up to date. Is there any way to trigger an update so I can add a newly installed app to the start menu immediately?
