StartAllBack for Windows 11

[ender`]

A few times so far I've had Explorer freeze during login – taskbar appears, but only the Start Menu button is painted, everything else is empty; wallpaper also doesn't appear, nor do any of the desktop icons. Nothing responds to clicks, I have to kill and restart Explorer, then it works fine. Any way to help troubleshoot this (I've had this happen both on my 23H2 x64 and 24H2 Arm64 machine; IIRC, it also happened after SaB upgrade once)?

Well, Ctrl-Shift-Esc, details - explorer.exe - create dump; dump will be big though

Hi @Tihiy,

Maybe this flew under the radar, so I'd like to check again.

Is SAB controlling the display of the list of open windows for an application icon in the taskbar? It seems that the width of the list is now dramatically smaller when there is a big number of windows for a single application. Before the list was wide enough to accommodate the longest window caption (or something like that).
Thanks in advance!

This is a Windows 24H2 bug.

Thanks so much for this info, This is indeed the solution!! 

Edit: Fun story, I'm banned from ElevenForum. Someone made some pretty nasty remarks about @Tihiy and I reported their post. I was suddenly banned for abusing the reporting system for one post. I guess it's okay there to make remarks about individuals nationality. It's a good resource but terrible moderation.

There are two reports here about scrollbar being wrong 'sometimes'. Define sometimes.

Well, sorry, I didn't notice it was already reported by @xap4oru, but I am in the same case as them.

After system start or reboot. Windows Mode is set to Dark, Apps Mode is Light. Happens with any style on both my PC's, after reappling style in SAB's settings or restarting explorer the scrollbar is back to normal.

Mine has both Windows mode and app mode set to Light, and it happens even in this case.

Hello
In StartAllBack 3.8.7, the Chrome user icon has been moved upwards
But after moving it, it feels a bit strange. The position of Discord’s notification red dot is a bit strange.

This is the Windows 11 location:

Is there a way to get the Widgets button to start at top (left) like it used to instead of the bottom (right)?

Yes I know. I should have said: "Add a language changer or selector regardless of Windows language"

In that case, yes, I agree it needs one.

Hello!

In versions <3.8 having this option disabled would make hidden taskbar appear and disappear instantly, without slide animation.

But this now has no effect on versions >3.8. Is it possible to either make that option affect SAB again or add option in SAB to disable sliding animation?

Thanks!

Like what he said, icon now moved up ,
Originally it was down   (ignore the fact it was mirrored, the it's an old issue that was fixed, the pic I've got is outdated)

 

Can you move it back to the original position?

No, because braindead Chrome draws it in top-right

@Tihiy

A few months ago, you promised to include the option to swap the position of the date and time. I have already asked about this. Why don't you respond to this or simply add the option?

But you said I promised? That implies I responded. I'm not usually adding options for the sake of one person.
