Trying to run Multiuplcity on two Windows 11 computers. As soon as it begins I'm told since I'm using a public network (I'm at home) ot may nopt work. Sure enough it doesn't find the laptop I with which I want share keyboard, mouse and monitor. Is there a tutorial somewhere or can I get advice on the network?

I just set up a new Windows 11 desktop for my girlfriend and noticed none of the usual ctrl and alt keyboard shortcuts work. That includes ctrl-A, ctrl-C, ctrl-V, ctrl-F4, alt-F4 etc.. This PC is straight out of the box from Best Buy, not a homebuilt or upgrade. Anyone else see and solve this problem?
So you're saying even if I do an upgrade install, rather than a clean install, I'll be forced to do a reset which means a clean install to activate this feature???
[quote who="Neil Banfield" reply="28" id="3831306"] Applying a WB skin will disable curtains and applying a curtains style will disable WB. [/quote] It does until the next reboot and the WB is back.
Now that Christmas is over I want to return to running Curtains rather than WB. WB no longer shows in the Task Manager startup list nor the registry Run list. How do I prevent it from running when I reboot?

My Curtains comment is because the Start menu looks as it did the last time I applied a Curtain style.

Explorer windows are skinning but not the Start 11 menu. I'm using Modern style. It appears to be still using the most recent Curtains style. Curtains is not running in the System Tray.
That was it, I never knew that option existed. It only affected Modern apps, not other Windows apps.
If a modern UI app is running full screen, accessing the Start menu (keyckick or keypress) displays the Windows 10 start menu. If the modern app is not currently on top or it's running in non full screen mode) the Start 11 menu displays.
I just installed the latest version of Curtains. Now every time I reboot the PC the Curtain dialog appears open on my desktop. I don't see any option to disable this behavior. It took several reboots but now the dialog no longer appears. Weird!
That worked, thank you. I never noticed that option existsed. Now my Start Menu is more compact.
That explains why I couldn't find it, I'm using Modern Style. Why the limitation?
The subject says it, is there a way to remove the user icon from the Start 10 menu when using Curtains? I know WB has that option.

This version does not apply Titlebar and Taskbar colors. It doesn't matter what I change it to, it remains the same, even after exiting and reentering the Curtains configuration app. It has the correct color selected but refuses to apply it. Also, does not apply custom min/max/close buttons. Just getting the same _ box and X for all styles.
It may be an issue with Curtains dn Start 10. I installed a new WB and the problem has gone away.
I don't have a online photo account but can describe the situation better. When adding a new item to the Start menu, rather than seeing its unique program icon, Start 10 displays the generic text white icon.
I tried to add new apps to the Start 10 menu but all of them appear with generic icons. If I choose properties I can select the correct icon but Start 10 always reverts to the generic.
[quote who="alaknebs" reply="10" id="3781143"] no idea what's wrong and not a solution, but if you are on win10 you can use win+tab (or click on that taskview icon on your taskbar) to display a list of all opened programs.. it's kinda similar to alt-tab, except it shows you what you have over various vitrual desktops and allows you to move things between them too. might work as a work around for you? [/quote] Win-tab is equally affected, showing the same short
I use Modern style because by using Win 7 style the Start 10 menu loses the Curtains skinning.
Is there a way to remove the user icon in the upper left corner of Start 10 when also using Curtains?
