Start Menu

Sunday, September 4, 2011 by Ryvermist | Discussion: WindowBlinds Tutorials

Hiyas, all. I just got the full version of OD and WB, but with WB, once the installation was complete, and I rebooted, every start menu is huge. I don't understand it. I was using Crucible with the trial version and it was fine, but now the start menu is over halfway to top pf screen. It's the same with every skin I apply? Did I do something wrong, somehow? And if so, what? I've tried uninstalling and using Ccleaner a few times (including registry cleaner) to make sure I got a complete uninstall, but the problem persists.  My thanks, in advance, for any/all help~

Did you change your screen resolution or any of your settings?  There is no reason for things to change between the trial and paid version. 

After uninstalling and running CCleaner do you reboot before reinstalling?

Hmmm, my Start Menu extends well over halfway up the screen but that doesn't seem strange to me.  Are you using the correct visual style for your OS version, XP, Vista or 7?

Is your start menu set to use large icons.  If you used small ones before, your start menu will be bigger now. It shouldn't have changed from one install to the next, but......

Perhaps a screenshot of the issue would shed some light on it as well
