Windows 8 Start Menu Modifier


Recommended Posts

  • 2 weeks later...

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.

    • they will use your data anyways, this way you at least get to take advantage of it, might as well use it
    • I think its a great thing, whoever messes with my msgs is going to be real bored. Even those who dont trust meta, like myself, if the gains translate into an improved communication, easiness, everyone will use it. The alternative is not use Meta Whatsapp since they will AI your msgs an resume it anyways

    • Backpack Hero and Figment are free to claim on the Epic Games Store by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe The Epic Games Store has just refreshed its weekly giveaways promotion, and there are two games up for grabs this time. Replacing the Sable freebie from last week, Backpack Hero and Figment have now landed for all PC gamers to claim. As always, you have seven days to add the latest indie game permanently to your Epic Games Store library. From the double giveaway, Backpack Hero comes in from indie developer Jaspel, offering a unique inventory management roguelike experience. Aside from collecting items to maximize the potential of a run, like with other roguelikes, here, your placement of the item in the backpack also matters. Each run offers randomly generated dungeons, enemies, and loot to grab. Next, Figment lands from Bedtime Digital Games. This isometric perspective action adventure game takes place in a surreal landscape with hand-drawn artwork, and everything is taking place inside a mind. You take the role of Dusty, the former voice of courage in the mind. The musical adventure involves trying to return Dusty to his old self while also helping the mind beat back its nightmares and restoring its original purpose. The Figment and Backpack Hero giveaways on the Epic Games Store are now active, and they will last until July 10. When not on sale, both games come in at $19.99 to purchase, but PC gamers can add the duo to their library for no cost during the seven-day timeframe. When the giveaways refresh next week, Epic Games plans on giving away two more games: the next musical adventure, Figment 2: Creed Valley, as well as the classic arcade-inspired shoot’em up Sky Racket.
