  1. You can always go back to the old version if you have the installation file. I'd export the settings for your old one like TwoCables mentioned and then restore the old versions settings if you decide to go back to it, after uninstalling the newer SiB. No idea if it would just let you downgrade without uninstalling the new version first. The "shine" effect matches what stock 8.1 Update 1 includes for it's Start Screen button, which has moved from popping up in the corner to where the Start Button is usually. Microsoft describes it as a shine effect in their list of changes, if I remember correctly. Wait. So what did it used to do before? I'm too new to Windows 8.1 to know. I didn't even have Windows 8. I'm just trying out the 90-Day Windows 8.1 Enterprise Evaluation. Windows 8 originally didn't have anything where the Start Button traditionally appeared. Instead, if you moved your mouse to the very bottom left corner of the screen, a thumbnail of the Start Screen would appear. If you left clicked it, it took you to the new interface Start Screen. If you right clicked it, then you got the same options you got by right-clicking the Start Button (or Start Menu) in StartIsBack, IF you have the option checked "Use Advanced Start Button context menu", with the addition of the "Properties" option since that's specific to configuring the Start Menu. It was still like this in Windows 8.1 until the Spring 2014 Update came out. That's at least partially why SiB had to be updated for full compatibility with the new update.

  3. On the site's comments for that article, it appears about five months ago people started noting that the tweak doesn't work under Windows 8.1, but it appears that all along it was hit or miss for some people. I know what you mean re: when things come together.
  4. Sending PM. Sent from my Sprint Samsung Galaxy SIII with M.O.A.R. v9.0, dkp kernel dated 3/20/2014 and TWRP v2.7.0.0.
  5. You know, any other argument aside, that's just rude to post that in the support thread for SiB. Why not PM the guy your recommendation instead? Sent from my Sprint Samsung Galaxy SIII with M.O.A.R. v9.0, dkp kernel dated 3/20/2014 and TWRP v2.7.0.0.
  6. Look back a page. We talked about it already. Sent from my Sprint Samsung Galaxy SIII with M.O.A.R. v9.0, dkp kernel dated 3/20/2014 and TWRP v2.7.0.0.
  7. As mentioned by others, I doubt if MS's new Start Menu would have all of the same features as yours, and some people might still prefer StartIsBack+/++/- over the native Start menu just because it would look more familiar to them.
  8. Just curious if by chance the ones who are not getting the submenu are Standard users instead of Administrators?

  10. I'm afraid there won't be many more changes as 1.6 deadline is soon. However, I'm open to suggestions what to do with Spring Update gifts and craps we've received. Also please test this version well. There were some DWM crashes on Spring Update related to immersive taskbar, so tell me if you confirm those. It's working with a relatively fresh install of Windows 8.1 with the 2014 Spring Update integrated.
  11. Thanks for working on an update, and congratulations on your new job! :-) Sent from my SPH-L710 using Tapatalk
  12. Any chance of implementing automatic updates soon? Maybe with a final and beta radio box to choose from? Sent from my SPH-L710 using Tapatalk
  13. Thank you, I hope yours and everyone else's Thanksgivings were happy and safe! I wish I had more time to be active on here again.
  14. Happy Turkey Day in advance, Tihiy and everyone! Been so busy with plans - getting married on Saturday and then honeymoon!
  15. Happy Turkey Day in advance, Tihiy and everyone! Been so busy with plans - getting married on Saturday and then honeymoon, haven't even had time to try 1.5 beta out much less the previous final.
  16. Hi! They're all trial versions, 30 day trial IIRC. Testing has completed and v1.0 of StartIsBack+ has been released!
