Start10 v1.9 is Now Available
Tuesday, April 7, 2020 by redskittlesonly | Discussion: WinCustomize News
Stardock Releases v1.9 Update for Start10,
The Popular Windows Start Menu Application
Stardock released v1.9 for Start10, an easy-to-use program that returns the familiar Start menu to Windows 10, today. The update includes quality of life improvements, language updates, and more.
With Start10, users can select the familiar Windows 7 style menu or the Modern design as the foundation of a custom Start menu experience. Changing out colors, applying textures, and setting up filtered searches are just a few ways that Start10 blends the best of what users are looking for when launching their favorite applications. People who use Stardock's award-winning desktop software, Fences, can enjoy that same organization right from within the Start menu.
“No one wants to spend a long time searching for things on their desktop,” said Brad Wardell, CEO of Stardock. “Start10 makes it easy to establish search filters and navigate your apps. This new update improves the interaction with the Windows 10 search bar, enhances performance, and improves compatibility with another one of our popular apps, WindowBlinds.”
v1.9 also includes jumplist support, updated French and Dutch translations, and more.
Start10 is $4.99 and is available through Stardock or on Steam. See a video of Start10 in action here, view more info here, and get additional media assets on our press page.

OK, found a bug. If I do style changes between Windows 7 Style, Modern Style and Windows 10 Style, then go back to Windows 7 Style, the start menu gets totally messed up again, reapply the skin did nothing, but rebooting puts it back to normal.

Hello,
Sorry to hear you are having issues. And sorry for my late respond, since I can't reproduce your issue on both of my systems. And I was waiting from someone else positing their similar issue here. Maybe details on your steps and specific on your setup like
1) Windows 10 version, please use Winver.exe for full Windows 10 version numbers.
2) Start10 version.
Thanks

Nope. Still messes up start menus for me.
I suspect you are either running into the issue LightStar reported with changing between styles, or the install didn't work correctly and you still have 1.91 files installed.

Testing with Start10 1.8 is showing the very same issue with swapping between modern and a WB theme. Best I can tell 1.92 is acting exactly how 1.8 did in this regard.
