No chance to get the "middleclick to close"-functionality in the new taskbar?  🥺

I asked this function and some others from the dead "7th taskbar tweaker" and he answered it was not in the plans.

Middle click to close is available when task grouping is disabled, otherwise it's not planned to be an option.

Also do you think an option to cycle taskbar combined items when clicking on them is realisable ? It's so useful...

And if i have luck, implement mid click on the taskbar ?

 

Thanks.

It's always available - hold Control when clicking group.

I think a killer feature for SAB would be independent auto hiding of task bars on multi monitors. Also is there any way to get the Quick Launch working on SABs Win 7 Theme, on this theme the taskbar right click menu doesn't have a menu item for Toolbars. ....  At this time I want to say how much I appreciate Your [Tihiy] coding to once again make the System Tray appear on all Taskbars. MicroSloth removing this has to be very high on the list of egregious things they did to the Taskbar alone.

After uninstalling and reinstalling StartAllback it advises all licenses have been activated.

I do have it activated on two other PCs and want to re-activate it on the one I uninstalled/reinstalled on.

How do I do this?

I think you need to wait 30 days to move the activation to a new machine.

Thanks, but I don't want to move the activation to a new machine, I want to reactivate it on the same machine I just uninstalled/reinstalled on.

On my local PC with StartAllback installed I have a full "Shut down" menu:

Switch user
Sign out
Lock
Restart
Sleep

When I connect to a remote PC on my LAN with StartAllback installed using RDP (remote desktop protocol) I have only a partial "Sign out" menu:

Disconnect
Lock

Is there any way to recover the full "Shut down" menu on he remote PC?

TIA

It's a bit too late now, but in the future if you're planning to reinstall Windows, export the Registry key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\StartIsBack\License before you reinstall, then import it back.

Thanks for that advice, but I was referring to uninstallation/reinstallation of StartAllback, not Windows. I think what has happened is that the StartAllback servers allowed installation on a new PC on my LAN, when it should have registered that installation had already been done on three PCs. As a consequence, regardless of my uninstalling StartAllback and its license on that new PC, when I fired up a PC where StartAllback had originally been installed, that was considered to be in excess of the three license limit. I can still register StartAllback on that new PC, but what I need is for that license to be valid again for the PC where it was originally installed.

I noticed a small bug – sometimes when I hover over a pinned icon (usually from the program that I just closed), only half of the highlight is painted:

And when this happens, the neighbouring icon doesn't get a highlight on hover at all.

Sorry for stealing the thread, but "not planned" is really disappointing, for me that loves the "middle click to close".
Or, also nice would be to fix (without having the grouping option), that the "opened app taskbar button" is replacing (or at least besides) the "pinned app taskbar button"....

Issue caused by startallback when hovering over both these buttons in light mod and dark mode, the highlight box is cut off on the right.
