Neil, I suspected that the functionality in Windows 8 was accidental, but it's actually a good feature. This is why I opened the ticket to request the change in Start 10, if possible. Maybe the Start 10 overlay can begin like 4 pixels away from the edge of the screen. I understand if it's not possible to make the change, but wanted to suggest it in case it would be relatively easy to implement in a future update. I do appreciate the tip of right-clicking a blank

Basj, Thanks for your reply. That setting changes the functionality of right-clicking the start button. I want right-clicking the start button to keep the Start 10 menu, but clicking in the corner to bring up the Win+X button. That is how it works with Start 8 on Win8.1. It allows users to go to the Start 8 config or the Win+X menu, depending on where they right-click. It's a small difference, but one example where Start 10 is not as good as its predecessor. If y
I have been using Start 8 for years, and have recently installed Start 10 on a few PCs and noticed a missing feature in Start 10 that I'd like to request. In Start 8, if you right-click the Start button, you get the small menu that includes the "Configure Start 8..." option. But if you put the cursor in the very corner (near the start button, but not the button itself), and right-click, you get the Win+X menu with the Computer Management, Command Prompt, and other very useful options.
@jbergin this is how to make sure the Hibernate option is enabled in the Windows 10 menu: https://windowsreport.com/hibernate-start-menu-windows-10/
Thank you for making the fix. I already had v1.8 installed, and tried running the new installer without an uninstall or purge just to see. After the install and reboot, hibernate worked again. Not sure if this is because it was a new pc with the first Start10 version installed being 1.8 or what, but at least in my case it was not necessary to uninstall or purge. Thanks again!
I just purchased and installed Start10 on a laptop with the Win 10 1909 build. Start10 version is 1.8. I went into the power options in my pc to enable the hibernate option to show on the standard Windows 10 menu. But Start10 does not reflect this change, and only shows restart, sleep, etc. If I change the setting in Windows to show sleep (or not), that is reflected in Start10, but the setting to display the hibernate option is not reflected in Start10.
