I'm going to add it to our list to investigate further and hopefully we can get it fixed up in a future version. ]]> RE: Start Menu problems - Folders do not work - Icon right Click does not work - App list does not work https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/start-menu-problems-folders-do-not-work-icon-right-click-does-not-work-app-list-does-not-work/?ID=e0ca149c-8a09-47ab-9523-36d71d78d009#14 Wed, 26 Jun 2019 20:25:16 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/start-menu-problems-folders-do-not-work-icon-right-click-does-not-work-app-list-does-not-work/?ID=e0ca149c-8a09-47ab-9523-36d71d78d009#14 DisplayFusion Thanks, Keith. That seems to solve the problem of group tile (folders?) oopening and teh menu explandin to teh alphabet. Also right clciking on tile works.

All splits have an independant task bar. The start menu always oopens in the same location, rather than the split where it was invoked (Some time back, this, used to work - Start opened, then shifted to the proper loation.) ]]> RE: Start Menu problems - Folders do not work - Icon right Click does not work - App list does not work https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/start-menu-problems-folders-do-not-work-icon-right-click-does-not-work-app-list-does-not-work/?ID=e0ca149c-8a09-47ab-9523-36d71d78d009#13 Wed, 26 Jun 2019 18:28:14 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/start-menu-problems-folders-do-not-work-icon-right-click-does-not-work-app-list-does-not-work/?ID=e0ca149c-8a09-47ab-9523-36d71d78d009#13 DisplayFusion Could you try this and let me know if it makes any difference?

  • Open the DisplayFusion Monitor Configuration window
  • Disable the "Taskbars" checkbox in the "Use these features with splits" section
  • Click OK

If you resize the Start menu to be much shorter, does that make any difference?


Sorry for the delayed response. I'm still having problems.

If I resize the Start menu to about 3 tiles high everything orks one or twice. Thing then fail even at this size. When in failure mode, if I resize again, Start closes, but then works once when reopened. I can resize a little or to vert tall with the same result.

This is more workable than having to shut down (task manger) and restart display fusion, but not convenient.

This may not be related, but the start menu always opens on the lower center screen. This is happens regardless screen focus or mouse location when I press the windows key. This also happens when I click the windows icon on any task bar on any screen. ]]> RE: Start Menu problems - Folders do not work - Icon right Click does not work - App list does not work https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/start-menu-problems-folders-do-not-work-icon-right-click-does-not-work-app-list-does-not-work/?ID=e0ca149c-8a09-47ab-9523-36d71d78d009#9 Thu, 13 Jun 2019 17:52:37 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/start-menu-problems-folders-do-not-work-icon-right-click-does-not-work-app-list-does-not-work/?ID=e0ca149c-8a09-47ab-9523-36d71d78d009#9 DisplayFusion If you resize the Start menu to be much shorter, does that make any difference? ]]> RE: Start Menu problems - Folders do not work - Icon right Click does not work - App list does not work https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/start-menu-problems-folders-do-not-work-icon-right-click-does-not-work-app-list-does-not-work/?ID=e0ca149c-8a09-47ab-9523-36d71d78d009#8 Wed, 12 Jun 2019 18:54:26 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/start-menu-problems-folders-do-not-work-icon-right-click-does-not-work-app-list-does-not-work/?ID=e0ca149c-8a09-47ab-9523-36d71d78d009#8 DisplayFusion Thanks, Keith. Rolling back did not help. (My reccolection is that operation was iffy befor the 9.5(?) update. I might have to try several time to get a folder to open.)
Also, please note that the Windows 10 update was made just afew days ago.

Thanks again, ]]> RE: Start Menu problems - Folders do not work - Icon right Click does not work - App list does not work https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/start-menu-problems-folders-do-not-work-icon-right-click-does-not-work-app-list-does-not-work/?ID=e0ca149c-8a09-47ab-9523-36d71d78d009#7 Wed, 12 Jun 2019 18:39:12 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/start-menu-problems-folders-do-not-work-icon-right-click-does-not-work-app-list-does-not-work/?ID=e0ca149c-8a09-47ab-9523-36d71d78d009#7 DisplayFusion Thanks! If you roll back to 9.4.3, does everything work correctly again?
