I am using taskbar on the left side of monitor vertically. Start button is on upper left corner of monitor. When I click start button it opens start menu on upper left corner of the monitor. So far, everything ok. Then, when I click into search bar in start menu, start menu jumps down on the left downs corner of the monitor. Otherwise, functionality is ok, but this jump is unpleasant for eyes.

It looks like when one clicks in search bar, Start menu is positioning as taskbar is horizontally

Is this the same issue when you start typing and then the search bar collapses itself?

It doesn't collapse, just whole Start menu jumps down as that taskbar bar is on bottom not on the left or right side of monitor

Please post windows version and build.
Please post explorer patcher version.

Can you record your screen with Win + G and upload it here? Maybe we have the same issue.

This is only glitch that this patch has. Otherwise it works great

I am having the same issue with the taskbar at the top. Even when clicking directly on the 'Magnifying Glass' icon, the search window pops up as if the taskbar was positioned at the bottom, as previously mentioned.

You still haven't told us what build of windows you're running.

Are you guys aware of a previous patch that didn't have this issue ? I'm not really sure based on the comments 😅

Tyler-IN commented Oct 1, 2023

Yeah, not sure when it started, but it was only a release or two before 22621.1992.56.1

Honestly I don't know if it matters for the sake of 'fixing' it; the location of the menu should have one corner pinned (depending on location of origin) in place during input events.

Were there a patch that didn't have this issue?

Well I just tried 22621.1413.54.4 but it had the issue too, maybe some borken configuration stays even if you rollback

Any progress? With this fixed, it would be perfect Windows 11 patch.

I really hate the new windows 11 taskbar - the more I love your software!
Thanks a lot!!!

But the above described behaviour is really disappointing.
Wish I could vote this bug up for quicker fixing.

I just found this tool today and outside of this here issue it's a 10/10... @valinet @Amrsatrio I'd be happy to pay a bounty for fixing this... nothing crazy, but certainly more than 2 cups of coffee :D
