Must have access to Windows Tools (e.g., EventViewer, Device Mgr) on secondary in Multiplicity Stardock Forums

I process Einstein@Home and Milkyway@Home work units om three computers. I bought Multiplicity for the one and only purpose of making adjustments on the secondary computers without switching the monitor cable to them and fussing with extra keyboards and mice. However, when I access a secondary computer with Multiplicity 4, the Start menu is made too small to read or access with the mouse. Instead

Reply to Start11 2.56 Release Feedback in Start Menu Products Stardock Forums

The Start11 update 2.5.6.3 (installed today 11/3/25) regressed a problem that the one and only Stardock update of last week fixed. I run BOINC and the BOINC screensaver that comes with it. There has never been a problem with the screensaver, except one that appeared several weeks ago with a Start11 update. The symptom is that when the BOINC screensaver kicks in, neither the keyboard nor the mouse will make it go away and present the desktop again. Pressing a key

That's it! Perfect! Thank you!

Stardock Taskbar folder looks like and has same panes as File Explorer window. in Other Stardock Software Stardock Forums

Version is 2.51, just updated today. On my main computer I have a Stardock Taskbar folder that opens up with two panes showing a list of frequently used programs. When one of the names is clicked upon, the associated program opens on the desktop. It is very handy; I used to use it several times a day. Now my main computer is down, and it will be several days before it works again. I tried to create the same mechanism on my backup computer by right-clicking th

Google Search Engine Page is gone in Multiplicity Stardock Forums

Microsoft Windows [Version 10.0.22631.4751] Browser is Chrome. After installing trial version of Multiplicity 4 ("Multiplicity4-setup_sd.exe") and rebooting, access to Google search engine, except thru the address bar, disappeared. All that is left is a small window that says "Search the web," but typing into it does nothing. Also gone are all the frequently used icons and links, such as Amazon and Google Maps. I use Google Maps several times a month, and

Reply to Cannot Access any File with .txt extension, nor notepad.exe in Start Menu Products Stardock Forums

Right, Explorer Patcher is the program that changes File Explorer. Does anyone know if Explorer Patcher is a Stardock effort? I think I started receiving updates from it when I bought and installed Start 11, version 1.

Reply to Cannot Access any File with .txt extension, nor notepad.exe in Start Menu Products Stardock Forums

Thanks and an 'E' for effort, but Notepad is now and always has been the preferred app for *.txt files. The problem may have been that File Explorer could not find notepad.exe even though it was where it has always been -- C:\windows\System32. Somebody from GitHub is patching File Explorer, and this time he, she, it or they busted it.

Cannot Access any File with .txt extension, nor notepad.exe in Start Menu Products Stardock Forums

Is StarDock the outfit that keeps updating File Explorer? I cannot access any file with a *.txt extension. File explorer can find hardly any file. In the command prompt window, I go to C:\Windows\System32, and do a dir notepad.exe, and dir can't find the file. I create a shortcut on the desktop to notepad, and the program is now accessible. All this trouble with no file with *.txt extension is accessible and notepad cannot be found started after the last File Exp
