Open Shell icon is behind the W11 icon

[karrdr]

Hi
I have just installed W11 on the new laptop but Open Shell does not work as expected - the icon added by Open Shell collides with the original Win icon. Do you know how to fix it?

Hello!
This article I just found may be helpful.

Before I installed Open Shell v4.4.169-beta on my Windows 11 laptop I installed ExplorerPatcher, and configured it to perform many of the tasks that ASKVG goes through in the above posted link and other tutorials he has done. I did not have any trouble with the Open Shell start button covering the stock Windows 11 start button. I have read a number of people have had the same issue you are having, but I believe that ExplorerPatcher fixes that automatically. You can get ExplorerPatcher here:

Does it work on windows 10 22h2

If you are asking about ExplorerPatcher, it is supposed to work on Windows 10, but they say some features may not be available. I do not have any experience with ExplorerPatcher on windows 10 since most of what I use ExplorerPatcher for on Windows 11 is still available on Windows 10, so I don't use it on Windows 10.
