  1. Custom buttons are not automatically scaled, open the configurator and reselect the button. Otherwise i don't see major issues.
  2. While i'm waiting for language updates, check out +1.0.2 http://www.startisback.com/StartIsBackPlus_setupRC.exe
  3. I understand you want your settings to be restored, but please don't turn this thread into a support case. Write to support email, with screenshot of the issue if possible.
  4. I understand what your problem is, but the symptoms - blank menu and no ability to pin items indicate that SIB thinks it's trial time out. Sorry for the trouble. Try deleting SOFTWARE\StartIsBack\License and reactivating. If it does not help, please write to support email.
  5. Yes, it's because of that. That will be fixed. I don't plan to. It does not go to start screen, so it should not be colorized like your start screen.
  6. Please write an e-mail to me from your purchase email and we'll find your key!
  7. maikii, it seems your trial is expired. Kingace, Gumroad purchase sends you StartIsBack exe which is exactly the same version as you download. Just dowlnoad StartIsBack+ from here http://startisback.com/#download-tab
  8. Does it run properly for any of invoke places (search, all programs, pinned programs, find-exe-path-and-run)? What if you hold ctrl+shift when invoking it (elevating)? What if you right-click it and select Open? What if you do it with keyboard and enter key?
  9. StartIsBack does not really affect taskbar painting. [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced] [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\StartIsBack] Export those keys from registry.
  10. It's intended and always was this way, otherwise it would show cropped item and that looks bad.
  11. You need to write to support email.
  12. Yeah it seems it's StartIsBack turn to choke on Putty. Will be fixed soon.
  13. That's your call, no versions of SIB/SIB+ were broken by updates, that applies for GA too.
  14. You can check the SIB+ option 'Enable on corners on secondary screens'. That will make secondary monitors have standard Start button and open start menu on primary monitor only.
  15. That means you have enabled 'All screen corners are active on secondary monitors'.
  16. You can rename it from shell or in-place, however it stays 'This PC' in configurator. If that annoys you perhaps I could display new name in configurator too. That's a rich idea which is floating in the air, however Start screen on side is will have big usability issues due to its huge margins and inability to scroll horizontally.
  17. Import the attached file to disable Modern apps in SIB+. nostartapps.reg
  18. humanangle, if is it possible, find this crash in windows error reporting and upload files which contain crash dump. Grope For Luna, you must be running some cleaner which aggressively deletes temporary directory or temporary directory is improperly configured. Make sure C:\Temp exists, has proper access rights and isn't corrupted somehow.
  19. Yes, that should fix it.
  20. The crash is caused by some bug in Games folder Parental control Ratings system (sic!). Wpc!CRatingSystemCache::GetRatingSystem+0x97Wpc!CSystemSettings::GetDefaultRatingsSystemForLocale+0x408Wpc!CSystemSettings::GetCurrentRatingsSystem+0x120Wpc!CSystemSettings::GetCurrentRatingsSystemID+0x36Wpc!CGamesSettings::Initialize+0x84Wpc!CWindowsParentalControls::GetGamesSettings+0x85gameux!CGameExplorer::GetGamesSettingsForUser+0x5agameux!CGameExplorer::GetGamesSettingsForCurrentUser+0x59gameux!CGameExplorer::SetupWPC+0xa7gameux!CGameExplorer::GetGameInternal+0xe8gameux!CGameExplorer::GetGame+0x8bgameux!CGameFolder::GetGame+0x3fgameux!CGameFolder::GetPropertyStore+0x34gameux!CGameFolder::BindToObject+0x7cshell32!CShellItem::BindToHandler+0x4ddshell32!CShellItem::_GetPropertyStoreWorker+0x36bshell32!CShellItem::GetPropertyStoreForKeys+0x116SearchFolder!CGrepQuery::_EvaluateItem+0x1086SearchFolder!CRowsetEnumeration::_EnumerateRowset+0x2f1SearchFolder!CRowsetEnumeration::WaitForResults+0x3fSearchFolder!CQueryResultSet::_HandleBatches+0xbdSearchFolder!CQueryResultSet::RealizeResults+0x19fIt's manifested because StartIsBack adds Games folder into search results. Unfortunately I'm not sure why your Games folder causes crash, nor there is a setting to remove games from search results. You may delete your games shortcuts from Games folder one by one to find which one is faulty. Or you can add explorer.exe into DEP exclusion list.
  21. Add them with regedit, as dword values, each one meaning normalized pixel width of the start menu part.
  22. StartIsBack does shutdown like Alt-F4 on desktop / charms power button does. Win-X does it different way it seems. If there's no crashes in Event Viewer Application log, then i'm sure it's not related. Go to Win8 slow shutdown thread. +1.0 has been silently re-released to fix minor "drop on start button does not always work" bug.
