Curtains for Windows 11 beta possible release date.

Curtains for Windows 11 beta possible release date.

With Windows 11 releasing in 3 weeks.  I am hoping you have been playing and coding with the preview versions.  Are you going to have a beta ready on release day for Windows 11 or sooner?  I know Windows Blinds is pretty much DOA for Windows 11 but I am looking forward to curtains being released ASAP.

The icon bar in Tiles 2 appears, and you can (sometimes) shift drag to add the program icons, other times the shift drag does not function. When moving between the desktops created with Tiles 2 it makes no difference, the windows do not change. I have reinstalled numerous times without success, but Tiles 2 is definitely not fully functional under Windows 11

Is there any update on a possible release date for Curtains for windows 11???

I do not believe we have plans for a Curtains for Windows 11.

WindowBlinds 11 provides skinning support on Windows 11.

Another one bites the dust... :-( Curtains was a good opportunity to skin the OS in a lightweight and subtle way without the overload of WB. And very good skins lost in time now. Shame.

Stardock is the Netflix of the skinning  world. Canceling good things after 1 'season'.

So expect the same fate will happen to Groupy?

Okay, didn't see that one. It is just sad to see so much programming and skinning efforts go down the bin. And I've seen plenty over the years. And the OD package becomes smaller and smaller.

I agree...but I blame MS for a lot of that waste, and still hope SD will revive Right Click and Desktop X (if it can be done).
