Windows 8 Start Menu Modifier


Recommended Posts

Any news about the 32 bit version?? :(

For the developers... I even noticed a bug... After changing the screen resolution, the program fails to work and the the taskbar is no longer shown under the Start menu (when using the option "fit to screen")... It is necessary to enter in the program again, and click "apply" one more time... A simple workaround should be that the program will automatically apply again its task (what has to be done manually in this release)... Moreover, when the program is launched at startup, it is shown a window for a little time, that become a longer time for less powerful PCs...

It is not a critic, I only hope to be useful to the development of the program... thanks

Really like this program but have an issue to report. I have an issue where the start menu will not appear on the bottom. When I select BOTTOM (any size) the menu appears in the mid screen, not matter what I do it will not appear near the bottom, the top works fine though.

I am using a desktop DPI of 150% and experience the issue.

Confirmed when I went back to DPI 100% it goes on top or bottom correctly but I need a higher DPI. I have tried a few DPI settings over 100% and the issue still happens not matter the setting except 100%.

I really like the program good job, please try to knock on the DPI issue.

I'm so damn lucky to have found an alternative called ImmersiveTaille v2 that is do exactly the same thing as Start Menu Modifier or maybe StartIsBack (except the start menu). It works for my Windows 8.1 32-bit.

Some people see going backwards as progression.

 

Including Microsoft who should be returning the Start Menu in 8.1U2. For this reason, people use it and it's very productive. I do like MS' implementation as it has been shown so far in previews.

 

There's a reason MS is bringing it back, and a reason for apps like this ... the Start Menu works, and removing it was a giant leap backwards as far as desktop/keyboard/mouse/MDI/Multitasking/Data-centric computing goes.

    • No, "a great deal" for 32GB of DDR5 is $50, not $350. I mean I see what you mean, that it's a decent price compared to what's currently available, but you really should put a disclaimer in this articles explaining that it's still multiple times more expensive than it used to be.
    • Linux 7.1 stable launch looms as Linus Torvalds releases the final release candidate by Paul Hill Linus Torvalds has just released what’s expected to be the final release candidate of Linux 7.1, rc7. The Linux founder said that this RC is not small, but smaller than recent releases, which is a good sign because he expects the stable version to drop next week if things continue on this trajectory. Linux kernels see a merge window for the first two weeks of their life, where developers add new features, then there are about seven or eight weeks of release candidates before the stable version. Typically, there are seven release candidates, but if more time is needed, then an eighth release candidate is released too. This week’s RC’s biggest area of fixes was for GPUs, with networking just behind. Torvalds said that the rest of the release was “pretty random and spread out” with some architecture fixes, driver fixes, filesystem improvements, and build fixes for more unusual configs. In terms of specific pieces of hardware receiving improvements in this update, we had more AMD Zen6 models supported and fixes for AMD SDMA 7.1 and GFX11. Hardware that got improvements includes Lenovo laptops, HONOR laptops, and MSI laptops. Here are the changelogs for those: ASoC: amd: acp: Add DMI quirk for Lenovo Yoga Pro 7 15ASH11 Input: atkbd - add DMI quirk for Lenovo Yoga Air 14 (83QK) Input: atkbd - skip deactivate for HONOR BCC-N's internal keyboard ASoC: amd: yc: Add MSI Raider A18 HX A9WJG to quirk table ASoC: amd: yc: Enable internal mic on MSI Bravo 17 C7VF When the stable Linux 7.1 is released, it will be up to distribution maintainers, such as Canonical and Red Hat, to release the update to their users via the update manager. Some versions of Linux will get it before others, and some will never get it at all. Fedora and Arch-based distros will be among the first to get it, though. If you don’t get it, the security fixes will be backported to your system’s kernel, so you won’t be at risk, but you won’t get newer hardware support, which is fine if your computer works now.
