wolfie Posted August 26, 2021 Share Posted August 26, 2021 (edited) Start11™ Restore the Classic Start Menu in Windows 10/11. Start11 Setup direct download link: https://cdn.stardock.us/downloads/public/software/start/Start11-fs-setup_sd.exe 30-day trial reset: C:\ProgramData\Stardock\Start11 -> delete License.sig & cache.dat. Then you can activate again. Every time after trial-reset, you need a new email address to activate with. Create a new temp email from https://temp-mail.org/en/ NOTE: You can install Open-Shell (freeware) alongside Start11 - they live perfectly happily together. If you switch Start11 off in its config screen, Open-Shell kicks in.

wolfie Posted August 28, 2021 Author Share Posted August 28, 2021 NOTE, as mentioned you need to use a new email address every time - but that's very easy using the temp email generator shown in my post. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OR you can use the same email with the dot trick for GMail addresses. TrojanK 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No PC restart needed, but you do need a new disposable email address. Personally, I prefer combining StartAllBack (for the taskbar) and Open-Shell (for the Start Menu).
