So you're all set then? ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/muti-monitor-start-button-issue/?ID=c0c221de-91b5-4c61-bea8-eba750bff36f#15 Fri, 12 Jun 2015 00:43:48 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/muti-monitor-start-button-issue/?ID=c0c221de-91b5-4c61-bea8-eba750bff36f#15 DisplayFusion I just figured it out. I had the taskbar on all windows turn on within display fusion, When i turn that setting on within windows 8.1 I had two taskbars on the 2nd and third monitor. I then turned the setting off in display fusion. Leaving me with one task bar on each monitor. I then went back to classic shell and turn off the replace icon feature. Every things works as it should. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/muti-monitor-start-button-issue/?ID=c0c221de-91b5-4c61-bea8-eba750bff36f#14 Thu, 11 Jun 2015 17:49:41 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/muti-monitor-start-button-issue/?ID=c0c221de-91b5-4c61-bea8-eba750bff36f#14 DisplayFusion Ok, strange! For me it works with or without replacing the Start button. When Classic Shell is not set to replace the Start button, do you have a custom Start button configured through some other third party app? ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/muti-monitor-start-button-issue/?ID=c0c221de-91b5-4c61-bea8-eba750bff36f#13 Wed, 10 Jun 2015 23:37:45 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/muti-monitor-start-button-issue/?ID=c0c221de-91b5-4c61-bea8-eba750bff36f#13 DisplayFusion Sorry for the long delay, i kinda gave up on a solution. I recently found something that could help. If i tell classic shell to replace to the replace the start icon everything works. If i turn that setting off and go back to the normal windows icon it only works on the main monitor. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/muti-monitor-start-button-issue/?ID=c0c221de-91b5-4c61-bea8-eba750bff36f#12 Fri, 27 Feb 2015 20:11:55 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/muti-monitor-start-button-issue/?ID=c0c221de-91b5-4c61-bea8-eba750bff36f#12 DisplayFusion I'm really stumped on this one. Could you enable L2 logging and send over a new debug log? Just wondering if it might show something extra that will help me track this down.

Thanks! ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/muti-monitor-start-button-issue/?ID=c0c221de-91b5-4c61-bea8-eba750bff36f#11 Thu, 26 Feb 2015 03:11:55 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/muti-monitor-start-button-issue/?ID=c0c221de-91b5-4c61-bea8-eba750bff36f#11 DisplayFusion I re installed Display Fusion and Classic Shell. Nothing has changed. I might mention i have used Nvadia surround but it is currently disabled. I only use it when gaming. Don't know if that will make a difference. Is there anything else i can try. This issue is kinda frustrating. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/muti-monitor-start-button-issue/?ID=c0c221de-91b5-4c61-bea8-eba750bff36f#10 Tue, 24 Feb 2015 21:19:42 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/muti-monitor-start-button-issue/?ID=c0c221de-91b5-4c61-bea8-eba750bff36f#10 DisplayFusion It shouldn't really be an issue, but could you try installing Classic Shell to the default location, just to be sure? ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/muti-monitor-start-button-issue/?ID=c0c221de-91b5-4c61-bea8-eba750bff36f#9 Tue, 24 Feb 2015 02:06:30 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/muti-monitor-start-button-issue/?ID=c0c221de-91b5-4c61-bea8-eba750bff36f#9 DisplayFusion Im running a dual hard drive setup. I have a 250GB SSD and a 1TB HDD. I tried to avoid installing programs on the SDD if possible. Do you think this could be causing the problem? ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/muti-monitor-start-button-issue/?ID=c0c221de-91b5-4c61-bea8-eba750bff36f#8 Mon, 23 Feb 2015 21:30:20 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/muti-monitor-start-button-issue/?ID=c0c221de-91b5-4c61-bea8-eba750bff36f#8 DisplayFusion Thanks! I've re-tested with your settings and still had no issues

I noticed from your Troubleshooting info that ClassicStartMenu.exe is in R:\Programs. Do you have Classic Shell fully installed, or is it just a portable version that you're running? ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/muti-monitor-start-button-issue/?ID=c0c221de-91b5-4c61-bea8-eba750bff36f#7 Fri, 20 Feb 2015 19:35:38 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/muti-monitor-start-button-issue/?ID=c0c221de-91b5-4c61-bea8-eba750bff36f#7 DisplayFusion I have attached my display fusion settings and Classic Shell settings. I appreciate the help. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/muti-monitor-start-button-issue/?ID=c0c221de-91b5-4c61-bea8-eba750bff36f#6 Fri, 20 Feb 2015 15:26:55 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/muti-monitor-start-button-issue/?ID=c0c221de-91b5-4c61-bea8-eba750bff36f#6 DisplayFusion We've tested this out here, but couldn't reproduce the issue, and the log doesn't point to any particular problems. Would you be able to export your DisplayFusion settings (Settings > Options > Export) as well as your Classic Shell settings? I'll import them here and test again, to see if it's maybe related to your settings.

Thanks! ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/muti-monitor-start-button-issue/?ID=c0c221de-91b5-4c61-bea8-eba750bff36f#5 Tue, 17 Feb 2015 00:23:33 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/muti-monitor-start-button-issue/?ID=c0c221de-91b5-4c61-bea8-eba750bff36f#5 DisplayFusion Yes, everything works as it should on the primary monitor. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/muti-monitor-start-button-issue/?ID=c0c221de-91b5-4c61-bea8-eba750bff36f#4 Fri, 13 Feb 2015 16:56:00 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/muti-monitor-start-button-issue/?ID=c0c221de-91b5-4c61-bea8-eba750bff36f#4 DisplayFusion No worries, thanks for the logs! Quick question, if you hit the Windows key on your primary monitor, does the Classic Shell start menu open on that screen? ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/muti-monitor-start-button-issue/?ID=c0c221de-91b5-4c61-bea8-eba750bff36f#3 Thu, 12 Feb 2015 21:23:38 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/muti-monitor-start-button-issue/?ID=c0c221de-91b5-4c61-bea8-eba750bff36f#3 DisplayFusion Sorry, for the delay. I forgot i posted this. I have been really busy. I have attached the two files. the start button was clicked at 3:21 PM ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/muti-monitor-start-button-issue/?ID=c0c221de-91b5-4c61-bea8-eba750bff36f#2 Fri, 30 Jan 2015 21:02:31 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/muti-monitor-start-button-issue/?ID=c0c221de-91b5-4c61-bea8-eba750bff36f#2 DisplayFusion Would you be able to send over a debug log? Here are the steps:

• On the Troubleshooting tab, change the Logging drop-down to "L1: Log Minimal"
• Restart DisplayFusion
• Try clicking the Start button on monitor 2 or 3 and note the time so we'll know where to check in the log file
• Send us the DisplayFusion.log and DebugInfo.html files (can be found by clicking the Open Log button on the Troubleshooting tab)
• Disable debug logging after sending the log

I have a triple monitor setup. On Monitor 1 everything works as it should, the problem occurs on monitors 2 and 3. The task-bar is created and shows up on each monitor, but the start button does not work at all. Nothing happens when I click it. If i move my mouse to monitor 2/3 and hit the windows key on my keyboard the start menu does show up. Everything else on the task-bar functions as it should. I have rebooted my computer multiple times and the issue is still not resolved. Any help with this issue would be greatly appreciated. ]]>
