Tuesday, November 21, 2023 by BradSams | Discussion: Start News
Today we are releasing an updated build of Start11 v2 with new translations and bug fixes. The update is rolling out now and will be arriving on your machine in the near future.
If you don’t want to wait for the update to reach your device, open the Start11 app, click on “About” and then manually check for an update. Or if you are an Object Desktop subscriber, you can also download it through the Object Desktop Manager.
With this release, we are updating many of our translations for Start11 v2 which will provide a better experience for those using the application with a language other than English. Did you know that if you want to contribute to the translations, we have all of the language files on GitHub?
Many of our community members have contributed to updating our translations and we are always looking for additional help. If you have primary or second language expertise, you can help make Start11 better for everyone.
Along with the updated translations, we have squashed many bugs as reported by our users. You can view the entire changelog here. And if you run into any issues with this release, make sure to let us know in our forums.

Start11v2 is not an UPDATE, it's an UPGRADE. Most software company's charge for upgrades and Stardock is no different.

Andy, Start11v2 is a full version higher than Start11v1.47. For that reason, a new key has to be purchased. It's the same as Windowblinds10 and Windowblinds11. What's confusing you is the Start11 part. That stayed the same because the Windows version is 11. The software version went from 1.xx to 2.xx.
Ok?

For a while, in an older version of Start11 you fixed the "BIG Startbutton-problem" Neil... In version 1.47 on Windows11, it shrinks it to an absolute minimum size.
-P L E A S E Fix the Startbutton problem so all my Billion skins look Ok again.
I'm going to try this latest update and hope 4 the best.
