  • Negative resource usage: fewer RAM used, fewer processes started, faster startup





StartAllBack For Windows 11 has been released.
It's an RC release. I haven't tested it yet as I have Start11 installed.

Edit: I have now tested it. It's working quite well.
Apart from a great start menu, you can also have the Enhanced Classic Taskbar back.
This means (for example) that you can have an uncombined and unlocked Taskbar.
You will now also be able to enhance the Taskbar clock using T-Clock Redux or similar.

You can also change Windows Explorer to Ribbon UI or Simple UI.

You can get it Download

No offence, but I know my English. “Issue” can also be a synonym of “problem” but it has a broader meaning.
Anyhow, if "problem(s)” makes you happy, so be it. Again, no offence.

I suppose you think action and gift are verbs. Just because something makes it's way into a dictionary doesn't mean it's correct, it just means it's in common usage. There's a phrase in the Scots dictionary beginning with F meaning "not much at all", because my sister put it there as an editor.

Yesterday I re-installed StartAllBack (SAB).
Because I saved the registry entry of SAB in May this Year, when I decided to give Start11 a try (I had severe troubles with the titlebars in SAB, which are solved in the meantime).

So before I reinstalled SAB, put back the registryfile and wonder o wonder: almost all my settings were back, as well as my licence. Did that on the version in my testenvironment (on VirtualBox) as well, there too it was ok. So if anyone wants to save most of the settings, this is what I saved: alll of HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\StartIsBack

Maybe if you installed for all users, you would have to look in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE.

If you have more than one system running with SAB, you'll have to backup the registry values for each system. I put back the backup of my normal system in the testenvironment first, but that did not function as far as the licence is concerned! It came with a non existing licence. But as I still had the snapshot of May, I could easily make a backup of the registry in that state.

Possibly there would not be a problem when I would re-enter the licence code, but I did not want to take a risk and have to mail the maker of the program.

Hopefully this helps someone in future!

I don't know if this has already been discussed but in win 11 pro with the latest version Startallback, when an application (eg Roon) is full screen the task bar remains visible. How do I cover the taskbar without invoking 'hidden' taskbar'? Potplayer full screen works OK.

That is not done by StartAllBack (SAB), but by Windows and is meant to be so!
If you click the middle of the three buttons here:

You will have a taskbar below the 'full screen'
No matter if you use SAB or not.

If you use the function key F11 on your keyboard you should get a real full screen, with and without SAB.
I have SAB as well and for me when I use F11, I get a real full screen (if the used program does allow me to have such a full screen).
So for instance Firefox or Edge will allow F11 for (real) full screen, but Settings for Windows or for SAB do not.

If F11 does not give you a real full screen in 'Roon', it has (to my opinion) to be a property of that program.

@Triplefun yeah i have that issue sometimes as well. more with vlc than any other program. typically i just relaunch it and it covers the taskbar the second time around. i havent uninstalled SAB, so i dont know if its a SAB issue or just another Win 11 issue... If i had to pick one, i blame Microsoft
