Group & Excel (Win11) Quick Access Bar Issue

from Stardock Forums

Hi, when I maximize my Excel window (double click or with maximize button on window) the Quick Access bar is covered by the Groupy tab-bar.

In the last step of the above image, I show that I need to click on the last non-visible option of the Access Bar to move it below the ribbon.

Is this just my experience?

Thanks!

Enable the setting "Hide when maximized" or "always hide". It will show on mouse over on either options.

You could also display Quick Access below the ribbon.

This is helpful to at least be able to see the top part of the grouped windows, but this was working properly before my company upgraded me to Windows 11 and to the Microsoft 365 Apps for Enterprise version.

I did try this (you can see it as the last step in my GIF above), but was wondering if this is something that the Stardock team can look into resolving without having to perform a workaround.

I'm not seeing this behavior on my system. Windows 11 Pro - 22635.4655; Groupy2 - 2.2.0.1

Normal Window

Maximized Window

Was groupy installed on windows 10 and then the system was upgraded to windows 11 as the same install? Maybe uninstall groupy completely and reinstall it if that's the case. There's a chance the windows 10 to 11 upgrade might of broke the software a little.
