StartIsBack++ 2.9

Featured Replies


@Tihiy 

Since the last version, I have a file "appsfolder.dat" which is created in AppData\Local\StartIsBack\Cache

Is this due to a "new option" ?
Is it better to install SIB in AppData ?

Thanks

StartIsBack++ 2.9.1

- Fixed some High Contrast issues

Looks like an issue was introduced - the profile picture is now solid white for me. If I change the Start Menu style in Settings, the user account picture returns, but only until next restart, then it's back to solid white.

Can you show screenshot? It can be only black on white or white on black and that change went to 2.9.0

Here it is: image.png.72ee3e52813e6dcb78001e539e1ae41b.png  

Oh, and locking and unlocking the computer makes the image come back. Also, 2.9 did not have this problem.

Hm. could this be DPI-related? My primary display is set to 225%, secondary to 175%, and I just noticed that if I open Start Menu on my secondary display, the picture appears, and afterwards it also appears on the primary display.

Well, I definitely didn't have this problem in 2.9.0 (nor before that) - for me it's new in 2.9.1.

Ok and what is it with then ?

For installing SIB, is it better to install it in the AppData directory ?
At installation, the only choice is to install it in Program Files (x86) (for all users, UAC disabled)

Thanks

On WinPE SIB 2.9.1 crashes.

The RoGetActivationFactory() for "Windows.Internal.Tiles.TileStore" is failing and there is no error handling.

Startisback works fine under classictheme too but if i close and restart explorer in task manager the taskbar becomes all skinny and weird i hope this gets fixed .

I was wondering how you implemented the UseWin32TrayClockExperience support. Could you give some info on how that works, cause I thought that they completely removed the old clock menu..
