Rojac Posted November 23, 2012 Share Posted November 23, 2012 (edited) Yes it´s possible to do, but still is right click a fast and good way to start xplorer2Why I use it? It´s simply so that xplorer2 has all that the normal explorer should have, so why not use it? It have least 10 times better features then regular explorer,and opportunities to Customised most of what you want....I never asked why you use it,all I am saying is to add a feature that possibly only one person would use would be a waste of time, especially when you only have to pin it to the taskbar next to the start button and use a left click instead of a right, I also think that asking $30 for xplorer2 is a bit much for most people to consider it, that is more then what most are paying to upgrade to Windows 8.A. is´t possible to pin so I can have it in bottom of taskbar? Then it´s no idea to have it on right-click. You have a point to that. Edited November 23, 2012 by Rojac Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caleula Posted November 24, 2012 Share Posted November 24, 2012 Getting this error, but only on one computer. Both have User Profiles on drive D.Do you get that when running setup? Try right clicking the setup and running as administrator.Whether run, download and user or administrator.Windows 8 treats StartIsBack as "beware" type software and have to hit "Run anyway".Always falls over at error message as uploaded.Using my Start8 licence until I can get StartIsBack to work on my second computer PS: Why does "Preview" in this forum constantly fall over and lose my edits?

tahayassen Posted November 24, 2012 Share Posted November 24, 2012 (edited) For some reason, the recent apps list is not working. It's set to 10 in the settings dialog, but it's totally empty. Other than that, works like a charm.Edit: Never mind. It's working now. Edited November 24, 2012 by tahayassen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starto Posted November 24, 2012 Share Posted November 24, 2012 I think that the Hibernate function is missing from that drop down menu.One needs to enable the 'Hibernate' function in Window 8/7 before it can be reflected in a StartIsBack. 8) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

choliscott Posted November 24, 2012 Share Posted November 24, 2012 It locked up again. I had a shortcut to metro apps on my desktop, which I removed. Below is a reference to the shortcut. I had created it as I couldn't remember at the time, what the key combination was to bring up the Metro menu. Also I do have a GE Force GTX 460 SE2, which is using Windows drivers. I am downloading the current ones from Nvidia now (not the beta ones)1. Right-click (or touch and hold) on the desktop, select New, and choose Shortcut.2. Copy and paste the following into the location field: %windir%\explorer.exe shell:::{4234d49b-0245-4df3-b780-3893943456e1}3 Select Next.4. Type in a name, like “All Apps”, and select Finish.I had a couple of shortcuts that was on the desktop, tied to a different install of Windows before upgrading to 8 (never got around reinstalling those programs). Also I have my personal folders on the "D" drive (main is SSD). I deleted the bad shortcuts from the desktopThat's good. Tell me that it solves your problem. Although, this shouldn't ever cause hard lockups. Do you use NVIDIA beta drivers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vlad2989 Posted November 26, 2012 Share Posted November 26, 2012 Idea for next version, is to have option for Start Menu without the Start Orb at all for more Windows 8 look, so Win Key would still open Start menu even though there is no accrual orb in the taskbar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, there is a setting in registry to use Start hot corner - HKCU\SOFTWARE\StartIsBack EnableStartEdge = 1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
