Hi Keith, [quote who="keith_d_winton" reply="3995116" id="541882"] FYI, I updated to the latest build when i saw there was a newer one, Start11_2.7.3.0-j302-Setup.exe, and the problem (at least on my ARM system) reverted to happening again. So I went back to the j299 build and it works fine again. [/quote] This is interesting, though at this time I have not seen other reports of it working in the j299 build but not the current beta (j302).
Hello and thank you for posting. [quote who="ExpatPom" reply="3994998" id="541903"] Can you post on here when the update is released for the 1.x series so we can revert back to normal service.

Hi Timothyl and thank you for posting. [quote who="TimothyI" id="541894"] When enhanced taskbar is turned on the icon appears as a black square, regardless of whether Calendar is actually opened or closed. If enhanced taskbar is turned off the icon appears normal (see attached screenshots). I have multiple (new) installations of Windows 11 and the problem is the same on all of them. [/quote] I've also reproduced this and have it logged. Inte
[quote who="Andyross63" reply="3994932" id="541877"] I think I may have found one clue. I have my taskbar set to hide when not needed. It seems if I pull the mouse down to the start button (which is set to left-side, not center) and it pops up and I quickly left-click, I get the underlines. If the bar is already up, or I pop it up and move the mouse over to the left, I don't get the underlines. Although even that seems a bit hit-or-miss. [/quote] That inconsistency is

[quote who="BillH99999" reply="3994897" id="541552"] I think that I will just move on. I'm sure there are a lot of non-technical users of Start11. It doesn't seem right that you would remove a function of Windows and then require users to go through these hoops in order to bring back that functionality. I said a couple days ago that I was thinking about reverting to the Windows start menu and task bar. I waited when I saw there was a fix in the beta. Afte

[quote who="BillH99999" reply="3994892" id="541552"] I see. Unfortunately I am a 75 year old semi technical user not a computer expert. I don't edit my registry. Couldn't this be added as an option instead of a manual registry edit? [/quote] I agree it is a bit technical. To make it easier, you can download this folder, with two batch files that can be run to enable or disable the feature: <a href="https://support.stardock.com/spa

[quote who="BillH99999" reply="3994889" id="541552"] I'm not sure what you mean. I installed the 2.7.3 beta. What else do I have to do? [/quote] This beta version includes support for a new registry key, but it still needs to be added manually using Windows' Registry Editor.

Hi Andyross64, thank you for posting. [quote who="Andyross63" id="541877"] I have noticed, with Start11 2.72 (and previous) under Win 11 that right-clicking the start menu (to get the text list of Settings, Event Viewer, etc...) tends to vary. Sometimes it is just plain text. Sometimes it has hotkey letters underlined. I'm not sure why it's not consistent. Not a big deal, just something I noticed. I tried to get a screen grab, but that doesn't work for it. [/qu
