[quote who="PhoenixRising1" reply="4" id="3849107"] you will just need to turn off start 11's "enhance taskbar" option. [/quote] Where is this setting? I do not see an "enhance taskbar" setting.

I'm using the same sub-skin every time. And I am using the apply button in SS. The fix for Error 212 did get rid of the activation problem I started having yesterday. I rebooted and now the background color of the context menu in question has changed! Strangely enough now it is also applying changes without a reboot. So I think I'm all sorted. Thanks for the pointers and efforts.

I found the Skin Studio 11 download, and it shows the Menu changes as in the screen shot your provided. However, when I open a context menu the color has not changed. Here's the two items I changed Menu and Menu text <img src="data:image/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAA4sAAAJeCAYAAAAdl5BLAAAAAXNSR0IArs4c6QAAAARnQU1BAACxjwv8YQUAAAAJcEhZcwAADsMAAA7DAcdvqGQAAMdvSURBVHhe7N0LYBTVvT/wb4yCgjxVEFQETCjGoIigkKhVVGyCt821mtZWRe/FxKrXxCp6b4vWB7a1oCbWV6K3CFpro23T/5VEUL

It just keeps getting worse. Now that changes will not save to either the original nor the modded, nor does the save as WBA work. And every time I run WB, including rebooting, or applying a skin to it, or any other function it has suddenly started prompting for the activation. I suspect there's a good chance these issues are linked...

Please remember that this is only an example of what I need to figure out how to fix. In Skin Studio I'm trying to find out precisely what item makes up the context menu font. This example is from Metall Updated Aug 21, 2018 by Z71 For Windows 7, 8.1 and 10. In this skin and others the menu font works fine for Win32 applications' menus... <img src="https://cdn

I have a couple of WB skins I really like but that have a light gray background with white text on the context menu, the right click on an icon menu. I'm runnning WB11 and Win10 22H2, but that shouldn't matter as this issue has existed for as long as I can remember. I've been using WindowBlinds since 1998. Try as I might I cannot isolate in Skin Studio what precise item controls this color. So... HELP! TIA

I did a standard uninstall of WB10, reboot and then installed WB11 and it worked, Rebooted again and still works. So I'm good to go, thanks for jumping in so quickly, Basj! Now the next step will be to move Start and Windows to 11, I guess. Still hate not having a vertical Taskbar on the side of my main monitor, though.

I notice other reports of skins not applying. Just to verify, I'm running Windows 10 22H2 release channel, Start 10, and WB11. When I installed WB11 and reboot I had skins applying. Then I had to reboot for a different reason and skins no longer applied at all. No number of reboots would restore the skinning. I then remove 11, reboot and reinstalled WB10 and everything works as expected. Should I remove WB10, reboot, install WB11 and then see what Happens? Or to be more to the poin

Just wanted to get these issue out there. I'll gladly go into more details if anyone is interested. Not asking for support as seems to be the assumption by some. I'm trying to help identify the issues here. I'm having several problems that popped-up new with this Insider version as well. Start11 taskbar flashing and not recognizing any mouse clicks, right nor left buttons. The same problem I had with coming out of sleep mode, or even screen saver (which I have set to blank the scre

I use a top mounted taskbar. In Start11 beta 1.16, I have to restart Explorer after coming out of sleep mode every time because the Taskbar will paint below the area previously reserved at the top. As if the"new" taskbar sees the old one still there, reserving the space.

Similar to at least one more report, I have two versions of Fences showing installed. However I never used Fences 3. only the 4 beta and now the released version of 4. But in Add/Remove Programs only Fences 4 shows as it should:

Some more information on the problem. I went into the Stardock download folder and manually ran the Fences 4 beta installer and same problem. I also noticed that Fences and Fences 4 beta were listed as separate programs in ODNT, but only 4 Beta showed up in Add/Remove. I then uninstalled, rebooted and neither version showed up in ODNT or Add/Remove. Then I installed Fences 4 beta, again through ODNT and it once again immediately said I needed to update from 3.98 to 3.98.54. Even though that's

Ever since the latest beta of Fences 4 was release my Object Desktop never sees it installed. It always says there is an update available. I have now had Fences 4 installed five times without any success. So even though I have 3.9.8.54 installed according to Help/About, Object Desktop says <img src="https://cdn.stardock.us/forums/0/0/64/1fa1888f-0dff-45f8-9529-9c0974b363
