Version 2.1 RC0 http://www.startisback.com/StartIsBack_setupRC.exe New: - Configurator fully supports high DPI modes / RTL languages - Folders are sorted before items in All Programs XP style program subfolders - Desktop toast is shown when new version is available Fixed: - Fixed 'Rename Start screen into Apps screen' feature breaking desktop app toast notifications - Fixed 'When I close modern app - Return to last environment' feature not working as expected in 2.0.2 Please test 'Start screen to Apps screen' feature in this build.

Explorer, msstyles, registry - all of them.

This is a definitely sad news. StartIsBack as is won't work on Windows Blue, due to Start Menu implementation removed from it - almost completely.

There's a regression in 2.0.2 in this matter. It will be fixed in the next version.

I don't think it's StartIsBack fault. Dynamic themes seems buggy in Windows 8 by themselves.

Where this idea came to life and why it's useful?

By the way, toasts seems like a nice way to notify about new version of StartIsBack without going to properties. I think I'll use toasts as an additional way of notifying about new SIB versions with v2.1.

And I did. Unfortunately, this is due to the way 'Rename Start to Apps" is implemented - all desktop apps are isolated from Modern UI environment. I'll try to resolve this in the future version. Sorry for the trouble!

You can export HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced and HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\StartIsBack registry keys.Version 2.0.2 is out http://www.startisback.com/#download-tab - Improved compatibility with non-fullscreen modern apps (read ModernMix) - Shortcuts for games are no longer created in Games start menu subfolder. Games can be searched from Start menu search - Fix: Start Screen shortcut was removed by some cleaners

Any program which shows windows on desktop.

The way this is implemented is insecure - the CC entry form opens in an overlay of an insecure site. Fixed this.

This is still a preliminary idea and will be discussed later. As for ModernMix, compatibility improvements for it will be in next version.Also, I've implemented long-needed direct card payments on the site.

Yes, SIB 3.0 is planned to have this feature, (when / if) it is released.

That can be fixed by disabling start menu translucency (or animations).

StartIsBack will provide it if/when it makes Modern apps belong to taskbar (like ModernMix does).

It's supposed to be this way. For now, opening another support forum is not worth the security risk / maintenance time.

When you invoke any kind of Modern UI, all hot corners are enabled.

If you turn Start screen into Apps screen, 'Pin to Start' context menu item is removed.

StartIsBack 2.0 is missing some translations. If you can translate SIB into following languages, please help! How to Missing languages: Czech: http://startisback.com/langs/cs-cz.txt Slovak: http://startisback.com/langs/SK-SK.txt Croatian: http://startisback.com/langs/HR-HR.txt New languages are also welcome! Next version should bring RTL translation support.

As the second part of KernelEx brain, I fully support Leyok and applaud to his effort. I wish all the scattered work around the board with KernelEx extensions would be merged into new version. If you need my guidance about API and compatibility, feel free to contact me.

It's Windows 8 issue, unfortunately. I'm improving this. On first installation, pinned items folder is cleaned and Windows 7 pinned items are migrated.

Ok no one but hero named gsilvap noticied it, and only with his help this bug was saved from the dungeon of bugs. That's very unlikely. You can try 1.3.3 to be sure: http://www.startisback.com/StartIsBack_setup133.exe (uninstall 2.0 first).

2.0.1 released; since no one uses XP-style All Programs mode, no one noticied major bug it in

I believe it's not allowed to redistribute parts of Start8. What exactly do you mean by 'some do not work'? If you want to participate in translation, see this post or write me what's wrong with translation, i'll forward your notes to the translator.
