Start11 v2.5.1

Start11 replaces the default Start menu with a choice of seven layouts, including Windows 10, Windows 7, a modern hybrid style and a compact pro layout. Each layout is previewed live, and the taskbar gains grouping, labelling, centring and per-monitor sizing options.

The installation applies the bundled licence locally, so nothing is sent to Stardock servers. An import option carries over an existing Start10 or Start11 profile from another machine in one step.

What's inside

• Seven Start menu layouts with live preview

1. Unpack the archive with 7-Zip
2. Run the installer as Administrator
3. Let setup restart Explorer when it asks
4. Enter the bundled licence key in the welcome dialog
