Start 11 not working after 04/14/2026 windows security updates

April 15, 2026 3:06:43 AM from Stardock ForumsStardock Forums

4/14/2026 I just installed Windows security updates 2026-04 .NET Framework Security Update (KB5082417), 2026-04 Security Update (KB5083769) (26200.8246) on my Windows 11 machine. When my computer restarted all of my settings for Start 11 were gone. I started the Start 11 application and reset my settings, but the settings I input have no bearing on the start menu or taskbar. Is there anyone who could give me some directive on how I should proceed..

Uninstall Start11, reboot and reinstall.  Something has probably stopped the service running for some reason.

Thank you for the quick response.I will do the uninstall/reinstall and see if that works tomorrow. It's already 2am where I'm at  )
