Windows 11 LTSC IOT 24H2 build 26100.1150
So I am using SAB registered and have toolbars. I use two, one for games and one for quicklaunch.

Every time I start/reboot the pc I noticed that my quicklaunch toolbar has my icons arranged differently each time. My games toolbar doesn't have this issue, it stays in the order I out them.

Typically I have from left to right, show desktop to the far left (first), then two solcia media icons, then browser and lastly file explorer at the far right (last)

When I reboot or restart the pc it rearanges the icons again, I am assuming it is following the actual quicklaunch foler arrangement, but not sure.

I've never had this issue with windows 10 or with the games toolbar I have, so if anyone has any ideas or a fix I'd greatly appreciate the help

In this post in your topic about SAB keeping startmenu I read:
I am currently on 24H2 build 26100.1000
As far as I am informed, in that Windows version the normal SAB does not accept Windows 10 taskbar options, so it will not use a toolbar.

There is a testversion of SAB, about which you can read in this posting in the StartAllback topic.

So how could we help when you did not specify, what version of Windows and what version of SAB you are using in this particular case?

I wasn't aware it was a windows version limit, this is why I never put any info.

I have since updated my info, so it shows the windows version.


As far as it not using a toolbar, could you elaberate more?

I have the toolbar made just fine, and it works as far as clicking icons, moving them around etc.
The issues I am running into is it seems that when I arrange the icons, on a reboot it will arrange them back to a different arrangement.
As far as everything else, it's working fine no issues, so I'm confused what you refer to when you say "it will not use a toolbar"

Because officially 26100.1000 version should not include legacy (windows 10) taskbar, that SAB normally uses. You need to test it with new SAB version, that has that legacy taskbar as part of it, rather than running it from Windows itself.

    I loved modding and customizing operating systems since very young age, gaining experience from all important systems, including Windows, Ubuntu, MacOS and Android, which led to creation of Windows 11 mod called WinMac. Seamlessly blending the elegance of macOS with the versatility of Windows, my customized interface elevates user experience through meticulously crafted modifications and UI enhancements.

    With WinMac, every interaction with Windows 11 environment is imbued with a touch of sophistication, where the boundaries between the Windows and Mac universes blur, offering a sublime computing experience that transcends conventional limitations of Windows 11.

Gotcha, yeah it's weird it's working at all then. I'll check out the beta
