Constant highlighting of taskbar buttons

from Stardock Forums

I have to restart explorer a dozen times a day due to my taskbar buttons staying highlighted after my mouse moves over them. It did this back when I ran the trial & now it's happening again as I use the software months later.

I to have been having this same issue. It has happened on both windows 10/11. I dont use any other customization software that would clash. It only goes away after a reboot and sometimes just comes back. You can stop it temporarily for the current item by dragging up on the taskbar pins but it will come back once you hover over them again. This has been around for a really long time now. I suspect its related to start11v2 as it does not do so with start10.

That's exactly what happens on my system but I don't use Start10/11.

Hello,
Sorry to hear you are having issues. Thank you for reporting this, do you have any steps to make sure the issue appear on your system. I tried but it don't show up in my Windows 10 and Windows 11 system. I noticed most Windowblinds skinner also using 3rd party application to change their setup to have old Windows 7 layout, do you have any of those application running in the back ground? Or application that edit how Windows File explorer work/look?

Thank you.

Just the stardock apps and rainmeter. It always eventually shows up on fresh windows installs. I refresh my systems every year to start fresh.

I have been using my Windows 11 VM system with Windowblinds skin applied for few days yet, I can get this issue happening in my system. I am not saying it is not happening in your system. But I need to know what actually triggers the issue. Moving forward, I have forwarded this issue to Stardock Support Team for their review on it. Please keep an eye on this thread for any updates. We appreciate your feedback and patience.

I have not. Recently the issue has been popping up on its own, it's seems possible that WindowBlinds just exacerbates the issue.

Do know there is a newer v11.06 out. Please try this version. Should be available in your account product page: https://store.stardock.com/myaccount/products
