In the latest update from Stardock, the Start11 app has reached version 2.5, introducing a suite of enhancements aimed at improving user experience on Windows 11. Among the most notable features is the ability to reposition the taskbar to the sides of the screen, a functionality that many users have long desired.
New Features in Start11 v2.5
The update allows for a vertical taskbar configuration, reminiscent of earlier Windows versions. Users can now place the taskbar on either the left or right side of their display, enhancing accessibility and personal preference. To activate this feature, simply navigate to the configuration panel, select the Taskbar option, and choose your preferred position.
Moreover, Start11 now supports the placement of the Start button on the left with icons centered, a feature previously limited to setups with two monitors. This update expands that capability to users with three or more monitors, catering to those who thrive in multi-screen environments. Additionally, the beta version addresses several bugs, making it a worthwhile upgrade for those who may have encountered issues in earlier iterations.
For those who find Windows 11’s default Start menu lacking, Start11 offers a refreshing alternative, allowing for a more customized and user-friendly interface. With its rich configuration options, users can significantly enhance their taskbar and Start menu experience, making it a compelling choice for anyone looking to personalize their operating system.
