Start Is Back - 2.1 release

[Aloha]

Hmm... trying to help but seem to scare them away!

Definitely, people prefer answers from Tihiy only!

Tihiy,

The default style of SIB doesn't show user picture on Start Menu when I apply theme Snowy 3.0. Other styles are OK. I don't know if this happens to anyone else or just my computer.

Because the guy who made the theme removed the user picture frame in theme.

2.1 is ready to go except the orb.

If anyone wants to see a good orb in StartIsBack, please write me.

Start buttons from deviantArt should do if they don't contain copyrighted images and author approves use of his work.

If you can create good orb (Start button picture), please contact me via e-mail, the reward is implied.

No, he didn't remove it. The user picture on other styles still display. It only doesn't show on the default style of SIB. But I am using another theme now.

It's hard to find a start button that doesn't contain Windows logo! I'll have these added to the Appearance to have more choice:

I'll also get this although it is a Windows logo!

Tihiy, will the white Windows 8 start button stay? Or are all of them being scrapped? I will backup and or find the button elsewhere if need be.

Hi,

Is it possible to configure StartIsBack so that program sub-folders are listed before individual program items ?

i.e.

Accessories

.....Administration Tools

.....Windows system

.....Notepad

.....Calculator

and not

Accessories

.....Notepad

.....Calculator

.....Administration Tools

.....Windows system

Thanks a lot,

Arc

Hello,

First thank you for creating this metro ui killer!

Is it possible to change the order of the shut-down sub-menu? (To have hibernate at the end of the list and not restart)

Thank you.

I know the thread is pretty long now however that was already discussed. The end result was no, the way it is now is how Win7 handles it and it's how it will remain. But that maybe an option will pop up later.

Very Good program.. the only reason I can withstand windows is due to this nice little program. I see that there is new version 2.1 RC2. I can't find any changelog so I don't know what is new in this version beside the option to show taskbar on start screen which in my opinion is kind of useless because as soon as you try to open something through taskbar we are back to desktop. Overall I really like this program specially the feature to put picture back on start menu. Anyone knows any good program to change windows 8 login page same as windows 7. I have seen couple of program which changes windows 7 login to windows 8 style login but not the other way around.

I just tried to use the 'lost license key' form, but each time I try I get an "Unable to send email!" error.

I somehow lost my key and need it resent.

My question got buried... Anyhow, are all the old start buttons being removed? I like the white one. Please tell me that one will stay, and just the original is being removed.

All buttons with Microsoft's trademarks will be removed - that includes both orbs, and the white flag.

I made an AutoIt script for silent install of StartIsBack v2.0.2 with activation (in case someone need it). Link.
