If you are faced with a machine that won’t boot to Windows their only suggestion is to contact the app developer and ask for assistance. The Microsoft Store and Microsoft’s Desktop Themes page aside, you can get loads of free third-party themes from download sources all over the internete.g.,, , and Themes10.win. As for the other third party UI customization tools, Microsoft suggests you remove them before updating. In the case of StartAllBack version 3.5.6 or later should ensure you don’t encounter the issue, but you need to ensure to upgrade before applying the patch. The effect of this is Explorer.exe getting stuck in a loop and never properly launching something of a problem if you intend to use your computer. Microsoft have blamed the third parties, as you would assume, suggesting that the “ apps often use unsupported methods to achieve their customization“. If you are running Win11 22H2 and apply the optional KB5022913 February 2023 non-security preview update, you may find you are now unable to boot to desktop. We also opened up the Microsoft Store on Windows to developers using different types of frameworks, packaging technologies, and commerce platforms. The latest UI customization packages to experience this are ExplorerPatcher or StartAllBack. In June, we introduced the new Microsoft Store on Windows, redesigned from the ground up to meet the needs of customers across a variety of app experiences. It is possible to remedy at least some of these wonderful features with the use of third party UI customization software however, as many have discovered, Microsoft seems to like to find ways to break them. Another favourite is tying task manager into Explorer.exe so that you can’t restart that service as easily as you could before Windows 11. There are also the wonderful new features, such as intermittently losing the ability to use your mouse to interact with your taskbar until you click the Windows button on your keyboard.

There are many of us who despise the changes made by Microsoft in Windows 11, which now resembles a Mac more than a Windows machine. Love The New Start Menu And Taskbar, OR ELSE!
