Start11 v1.1 Enters Beta
Start11 users can expect to get the newest update to Start11 in the coming weeks, but if you can't wait, you can get into the opt-in beta now. Start11 is a program that allows users to customize the Windows® Start menu and taskbar and allows users to restore the Start menu to appear as it does in previous versions of Windows while customizing and enhancing its functionality.
New Features Coming to v1.1:
- Win10/Win11 styles now support folders. By dragging an icon over another icon while holding down the shift key, a folder will be created in the menu.
- Win10/Win11 styles now offer a right-click Icon submenu that lets you easily change the app icon that appears in the Start menu.
- On the very first run of Start11 on a Win10 install, the existing Win10 menu will be imported for the Win10 style including folders.
- Enhanced support for Fences integration makes it easier to add your fences directly to your Start menu.
- Ability to lock icon positions in win10/11 menus.
