Object Dock - flyout menus not working - Win11

from Stardock Forums

I'm using Win11, new installation.

Flyout menus aren't working, either using a folder with shortcuts, or custom menu.

Anyone else having problems with Object Dock?

Tonton II You need to look at the system requirements for Object Dock.  It is actually not compatible with Windows 11 [and several earlier versions].

Hello,
Sorry to hear you are having issues. ObjectDock is not compatible with Windows 10 and 11.

Thanks

Thanks for the responses.

I've used Object Desktop for yonks. Had to upgrade when my old PC died a couple of months back. So bought the current version and it seems nothing in it really works for Win 11 :[

Not compatible with windows 10 or 11. Win 10 has been out for a number of years now. Yet you continue to sell the utility rather than putting it up for free in the boneyard?

Probably because many features in the Windows OSs which supported OD 2 and OD 2 Plus have been depreciated. From Redskittlesonly's OP here: https://forums.stardock.com/526582/page/1/#3924920

With the modernization of the application, we did have to sunset some minor features that were tied to legacy components of Windows that have since been deprecated. But the core functionality of the app has been streamlined and with the new support for higher resolution displays,
