Hi, I have a couple of issues
First I have the home page blurring out
Second I have taskbar icons splitting
I have enclosed some images, any help welcome

Uninstall Stardock start11 and restart. If everything clears up using Windows native GUI, then there is an issue with Stardock. Maybe it needs updating or is corrupted, .

Have you updated to the latest build?
From Google.

1. Fix the Splitting Icons (Taskbar Overlap)
When icons split or overlap, Start11 and Windows are both trying to draw the taskbar.

• • Open Start11 Settings.
  • Navigate to the Taskbar section. [1]
  • Scroll down to the advanced options and locate "Let Start11 enhance the taskbar". [1]
  • Toggle this setting off and on again. If the issue persists, leave it turned Off. This forces Windows to handle the icon positioning natively, stopping the splitting effect. [1]
  • Alternative: If you use a touch-screen device, scroll to the bottom of the Taskbar menu and change the setting to "Force touch taskbar" instead of "Automatic" to correct icon placement. [1]

2. Resolve the Homepage Blurring
The homepage or start menu losing its sharp resolution or turning entirely transparent/blurry is tied to conflicting OS graphics settings. [1, 2]

• • Open your Windows Settings app (Press Win + I).
  • Go to Personalization > Colors.
  • Locate Transparency effects and toggle them Off, then back On.
  • If you are running multiple monitors with different scaling levels (e.g., one at 100% and another at 150%), try temporarily setting both displays to the same scaling percentage in Settings > System > Display to see if the blur resolves. [1, 2, 3]

Everything on my PC is up to date.

Excellent tutorial for fix, worked perfect, cheers for the help

No split icons so far, blur only happens once or twice a day, so far its all good
