FancyStartMenu

Wednesday, November 3, 2021 by Jenna1065 | Discussion: WindowBlinds

I am using Windows 10, and not 11. So along with windows blinds, to get that fancy start menu that comes with windows blinds, you need start 10. So I purchase Start 10 and not Start 11. All done fine until I got an update, "Start 11" in Start 10. So I clicked update, and now I do not get that fancy start menu. Only the Windows 10 default start menu, and it is annoying. Please, any help on this?

The thing with MicroSoft, you would think animated wallpaper (deskscapes), and fancy windows creation like windows blinds, and the start menu would have caught on by now since windows XP. MS windows is like that empty, blank canvas, and you put your creation on it. Do not think MS will and a lot of people are unaware of Stardock.

Yeah, so I keep telling everyone so Windowblinds would get more exposure with Ads etc, but no one's listening

I totally agree Andy! Stardock literally does nothing to advertise its products.

That's okay. I uninstalled Desk Scapes, windows Blinds, Start10/11. All of a sudden again, got activation message. Going to put all in another computer. Never been so frustrated. Will move the problems to there (hope none).
