[ExplorerPatcher] can bring back a productive working environment on Windows 11.
Both software work well, but when I open Start11 config, the taskbar color become Pure BLACK.
Only restart explorer.exe can recovery, until next time the Start11 config be opened

i can confirm this behavior as well.
I am not seeing the issue at all with windows 11 v 22000.346, latest explorer patcher installed and start 11 v 1.0.
I do know that explorer patcher broke for a while with the Beta channel release of Windows and the new patch was designed to fix that.... It is possible that if you have the latest explorer patcher downloaded that it will work better with the Beta Channel build of Windows 11, otherwise maybe using an older build of explorer patcher will fix your issue?
maybe it depends on order the of installation of both programs, like explorer patcher/start11 locks certain processes or something... i am using the the same build and the latest explorer plus start11 1.0 and when i change any setting related to color or blur, either on the start menu or taskbar of start11...the w11 taskbar color goes to black, no transparency... i can however reset the default mica transparency on the taskbar if i open the default w11 start menu, middle click or restart explorer completely.
That is a possibility, I had to completely uninstall explorer patcher before the update and had only start 11 installed for a while. I only recently reinstalled explorer patcher. I wonder if you uninstalled the dxgi.dll in the windows folder and then reinstalled it if that would fix the issue for you.
If it does not then there must be some sort of settings you have enabled or adjusted that I do not. I am able to get transparency to work fine under start 11 settings.
fair enough...im hoping that 1.1 comes along with the ability to uncombine taskbar icons, as its really the only reason i use explorer patcher at all. then i can ditch it and use start11 exclusively, as i haven't seen any of the transparency bugs by itself. but there is one cool thing they do together and startallback just introduced was the ability to keep the start button centered but have the icons uncombined...its perfect this way...for me anyway.
Same here. For me explorer patcher is a bit of a band aid fix while I wait for 1.1 to be developed. I have no clue how long that will take until 1.1 is ready though.
