No PC-Settings with Openshell #2098
Description
Describe the bug
Hello,
after new installation of Windows 11 and Openshell .194 I can not access to Windows-settings using searchfield.
E.g. Klicking Start it opens Openshell. Then typing 'display' or in 'resolution' I get the right matches for display-settings but if I type 'Enter' oder click with left mousebutton nothing happens. This happend only with all matches that leads to pc-settings. When I try other apps like 'word' or 'editor' everything is okay. And when I click PC-Settings as a link in Openshell it works right as well. Only searching by typing keywords has this issue. Using Openshell on other PCs with Windows 10 everything works fine. I love using Openshell mostly by typing.
Any idea how to solve this?
Best regards
ruby

Wow, what an ultra quick response!
And thanks, that worked perfectly.
One more question: I changed the start button to Win7 button. It doesn't overlay the original start button completely (see pic). I almost tried 'align to edge of taskbar' but that is not enough. Can the button be moved a few pixel down?

I even tried several sizes, but the original start butten is never covered completely.

Is that some tablet/touch mode taskbar?
You will simply need to modify your button image so that it is shifted down.
There is currently no other way.

I use this button image on other systems without this effect. Before installing whith Windows 11 it worked well on the same tablet (MS Surface Pro 7+) with Windows 10 - same resolution, same button, same version of Open Shell. After instalaltion wof Win11 the button looks like being moved more upwards related to the other installations I know, not even centered over the original start button.
But if there is no way - never mind, it's only some esthetic issue ;-)
I'm glad about the other solution and your quick help - many thanks!

Unfortunately, taskbar is implemented differently in Win11. So many things that worked in Win10 don't work anymore.
