Hi, Tihiy

I am Just giving you feedback:

When ticking or unticking :"Automatically check for new versions" small square, the Apply button state does not change, always disabled.

SIB+ 1.5 beta 1.

Windows 8.1 X86.

Confirmed, but it could be intended behavior.

Cheers.

Found a slightly annoying issue. Sometimes seemingly at random, when I click a folder in Startisback (I believe this happened with the stable version as well) the folder just won't open. Start screen tiles as well as regular items in the start menu open fine. Anyhow, while this bug is going on, need a log before I reboot? (I have updates pending for some stuff) Where are the logs I should upload for this particular issue?

Also, instead of making another post (although this is a different issue) I've noticed some minor Metro/Modern UI carried over inconsistencies in StartIsBack that are slightly annoying, nothing serious. Here's some off the top of my head:

1) Ever notice how when you hover over "Start Apps", the cursor changes from the standard cursor to a hand? Slight annoyance.

2) Right click Internet Explorer. At least in Windows 8.1, it says "opennewwindow" without quotes. A little touching up to make it say "Open a new window" would be nice.

I just tested it and yes, it just like you said. I guess when folder has two locations (user and all users), it won't open unless you do right-click then click open/open all users and when folder has one location (for example: all users), it will open when you click on it

never

Nice update Tihiy, I see one in particular "Fixed: rapidly changing theme crash" I have been having that a fair amount but never thought it was SIB, so thanks for this fix :)

If it's feedback you want, it's feedback you'll get. I cannot seem to figure out what's causing folders not to have been able to be opened. Also, this is a nitpick, but could you change the context menu for Internet Explorer from StartIsBack? It literally says "opennewwindow" and I think it should say something more human readable like "Open a New Window".

Your best update to date, in my opinion. I absolutely love the "Show Start screen on secondary monitor when I log on to my PC" feature. I've always manually launched it on my #2 monitor first thing after logging on, now it just does it. Thanks, Tihiy, for the continuously great work!
