Do i have to buy start11 to try the beta or i can try it with the trial version?

I am confused.  Is 1.2 beta the latest or 1.16 beta the latest version. 

1.16 is the latest version out right now .

chunkyll -

I don't believe betas are available as trials.  Usually available only to owners of release versions of standalone apps and/or the Object Desktop suite.

Start 11 version 1.2 is the version of the finished project number. The beta numbers between 1.11 - 1.19 is like a scale of how close they are to the fully released product. Therefore version 1.2 is still cooking and not yet finished and thus there is no 1.2 to download yet.

I'm sure others have posted these requests already, but here's my list; 

1. Bring back the old/original right-click on the taskbar menu! Why do I have to click TWICE to get to everything that used to take only ONE click?! MS went out of their way to hose up the Windows 11 task bar! Yet another example of violating the unwritten "If it ain't broke, don't fix it!" law of software development!

2. Bring back the ability to create and attach a folder of shortcuts, links, files and sub-folders to the taskbar! I miss that capability more than ANY other! 

This one isn't a feature request, but it can't be over-stated;

IF IT AIN'T BROKE, DON'T FIX IT!!

If something works just fine the way it is, it doesn't NEED to be modified or redesigned to do the exact same thing it's already doing!

And don't try and give us redesigned things that already exist and rename them to make us THINK it's a new feature! 

FYI, I had to revert back to production version as my beta copy would not allow me to click on the very right end of the taskbar (network, sound, clock, date, notifications) most importantly to view and clear notifications!

I ended up at another solution as well, but if you could implement adding toolbars like Windows used to allow for, I 'd come back. Adding recent docs to a right click of an item in the toolbar would make it even better.

What is this app that lets you divide up taskbar icons into groups like this?  I seem to remember being able to do this on an older Windows version!  I would really like to have this feature.

Not sure how this happened but I lost most of the Start Menu shortcuts in my “All Apps” list.  It seems to be all of the ones I had pinned to the taskbar.  The taskbar icons are still there but if I go to “All Apps”, the shortcuts have been deleted.  I was able to find the executable, recreate the shortcut, and place it in the appropriate Start Menu folder but it was probably 15 shortcuts or so and quite tedious.  Not sure when exactly it happened but I noticed it after the beta when I couldn’t find the shortcuts in the All Apps list to pin them to the Start11 Menu.

I also have Fences installed and created fences for most or all of those deleted shortcuts so maybe it was the culprit but I am not really sure.  I created the Fences several weeks ago though and just noticed the missing shortcuts after installing the beta.

Anyway, luckily, I am fluent with shortcuts and the Start Menu folders in Windows or that would have been a huge mess!

hope this information helps.

As I recall, that was just a blank/transparent spacer that provided the illusion of a divided taskbar. That would be handy too; give us a translucent spacer that's a configurable; x number of pixels wide. 

Does the free trial not include access to the beta? The ungrouping is the one reason I'm considering this product, so I'd like to see it if possible. 
The download put me at v1.11, and I don't have any subs in my account to edit.

I believe for trial you will not get a Beta version, not until it become full release version. You have two choice, wait until it become a full version or purchase a license. If the product not up to what you expected. You can always do a refund request.

There is a link to the installer on the feedback thread : https://forums.stardock.com/510929

The notification area suddenly started to appear on the left on the screen. Now it's not showing at all.

I have the taskbar at the top.   

After a restart of Explorer it works as expected.

Also, programs start very slow when I open them via the taskbar.

I don't know if this information is useful without any log file or something. Let me know if more information is needed.
