A great addition would be open menus when hovering over with mouse cursor.

PLEASE ADD..........

Can you please add an option that makes tabs revert back to a user chosen tab after launching a shortcut. Just like you have it in pages. When selecting a shortcut from page #2 Start11-v2 will revert back to page #1, this would be nice for tabs too.

Right clicking on programs in the start menu no longer shows the jump-list of recent items surfaced by the application in question.

In v1, right-clicking Visual Studio popped up the VS context menu, including the recent items jump-list.

This is addressed in the 2.0.0.1 build thats available on your downloads page when logged into the Stardock Store.

Windows 11 22635.2552, Start11v2 2.0.0.2

In the Windows 10 Start menu, the "Show hidden items list" in the All Apps list no longer works. I have several hidden apps and no way to get to them.

EDIT: This seems to work in the Windows 11 Style and the Windows Pro Style.

Change to have UI disable pick a custom color options when mica is enabled and the menu will ignore any set color

Does this mean Mica now displays for the context menu?

No. Mica wouldn't be used for context menus anyway as you would use acrylic blur. But for now menus have solid backgrounds.

On my downloaded and installed copy, clicking on the executable brings up nothing. Cannot access settings or the program at all.

Yeah I know. Looks like what is going is that scrolling is disabled in the folders. Probably going to reduce the folder size soon though

Oh, true! "For now..." I hope it's supported later. I prefer a blend into the Windows 11 theme and Start 11 v2 seems like a step in the right direction!

Please add a feature to sort open apps on taskbar alphabetically.

Could not exit from Filtered Folder configuration. Can't go back, menu was not selectable and the Close button did not work, finally exited via Task Manager.

Went back in, the folder I had set was there and app navigation now worked without a problem.

Is there any way to pin or make the Universal Applications folder visible to the Start Menu in other than the W7 menu style?

Running Windows 11, Start11v2.002.

Is there a particular reason why you would want universal apps rather than all apps?
