Window Blinds 11 not changing taskbar

Windows Blinds 11 works mostly normally, but with only a handful of catches. My taskbar remains unchanged, other than the start button. Not only that, but its Firefox tab integration appears to be bugged as well, whiting out the upper bar, however this is an ignorable issue. The primary one is it not changing the taskbar as intended, at least, I don't think it's intended to be like this. I am running Windows 11 Home. I have provided an image of my taskbar for reference, please help.

Hello,
Sorry to hear you are having issues. Do you have Start11 installed? Start11 need to be installed to have WB skin the taskbar and the Start menu.

Thanks

You need to install the very latest WB build to support the taskbar in the latest version of Windows 11.

I have the SAME problem and I have Windows 11 also with the Windowblinds 11. Thats the main reason I buy Object Desktop is for Windowblinds and I'm VERY disappointed .....I've tried everything. I'm hoping that since JaidenBBBBBB posted in April 2023 that maybe someone has found a solution.

Thanking You All,

Karen

Hello,
Sorry to hear you are having issues. You have Object Desktop, which mean you also have Start11, yes? Do you have it installed and yet, still have the same issue?

Thank you,

Well Basj I can't thank you enough. As soon as I installed the Start 11, it fixed itself right up. Good to go now.... Thanks Again

I have Start 11/WB11 (current versions for both), and the task bar will not skin properly.

Thoughts?

Hello,
Sorry to hear you are having issues. What version of Windows you on? Use Winver.exe to get those. Also need versions for Start11 and WB11.

Does the issue happen on any WB Skin?

Thanks

My taskbar skins correctly, BUT only on the main monitor. Monitor 2 & 3 have a weird plain white taskbar with white text which makes them useless.

I am sure you did not miss the comment by Neil on that other thread, where he mentioned that he need to investigate into the issue. https://forums.stardock.com/515928/get;3910838. Do know that it was working before. But, I believe, Windows has change something on its taskbar causing it no longer work if you don't have Start11 installed. If you not wish to install Start11. Please wait for Neil updates on this issue.

Thank you,
