I just installed the Start11 app and I like it, except one thing. When I turn on the Start11 start menu, the menu isn't centered above the icons in the taskbar. When I turn it off then the start menu is centered, but I will then miss the extra features. Is it possible to get it centered when Start11 own start menu is on?

    Still assembled, still runs. Haven't turned it on for 13 years?
My choices are: Start 11 from stardock.com and Explorer Patcher from github.com .

Not that I'm aware of, and I use Start 11.

More adjustments within the Start11 app's settings. Click the Start 11 "start button" then right click inside the Start Menu but not on an icon and choose "configure start 11". You'll see all kinds of settings for how you want the Start 11 menu to appear (center or left) and the actual UI of the menu and much more.

If that works as good as it claims, then it might be worth trying.
