Sadly, after last update the explorer patcher caused unusable start button. 
I used it... but after the update many problems with the Taskbar started and start button couldn't be used at all. It took me maybe 15 minutes till I found out that it is because of Explorer Patcher!

I don't recommend to use it as of now 😞

15 minutes is next to nothing when you try to repair windows 10/11 broken BCD or any system file malfunction. The patcher works as intended. It seems it's time to get back to w10 - i see no reason for using w11 anymore.

    Hi Elboyler 

    "It seems it's time to get back to w10 - i see no reason for using w11 anymore."

    I'm still working on Windows10 and I'm looking forward to improving Windows11's productivity.

    I can not understand why users first install Windows11 -> then "improve" with some add-ons that restore the functionality of Windows10.

    After all, there is information that the new Windows has been changed and does not support some 

    Function.

      the update is accepted as a normal w10 update and also down the track w10 will not be supported so we end up with a vulnerable pc.

      The best way long term is to NEVER buy ANYTHING microsoft. Ensure this type of behaviour (making unwanted changes for the sake of change) costs them sales. So no MS keyboards etc, no MS surface pro etc. Also let MS know you will protest buy boycotting their products.

      All these changes should be available only if you accept them and all be reversible. You should be able to have W11 with the W10 features and have even more from W7 available along with what some third party tweekers allow.

      We should not lose a large amount of productivity because the developers like to change what doesn't need changing.

      I didn't get the option. Yesterday I just got a popup saying "We have important updates for you" with three options: Restart now, Restart in 10 minutes, Wait 1 hour. 

      I selected "Wait 1 hour" and an hour later my computer just started updating. Next thing I knew, I was stuck with Windows 11 and this **bleep** useless taskbar. The popup never said it was going to install Windows 11.

        In this case, you have a few days to uninstall the Windows11 upgrade.
        Please consider this!

    I'm testing the "StartAllBack" third party patch now. So far, so good. It looks like Explorer Patcher caused also WLAN unexpected crashes. Well.. the Patcher worked before, but after last update something changed making it crashing the WLAN driver.
