If you are usingStartAllBack, there have been widespread reports of the app triggering a black screen on Windows 11. My research suggests that the issue is related to the recent changes in Windows 11 22H2 and how Microsoft is trying to block customization attempts in the OS.
This is evident as Microsoft has started blocking upgrades upon detectingStartAllBackon the PC. When installing a newer OS version using the setup, you are informed thatStartAllBackcauses security and performance issues on Windows.
But you don’t necessarily have to uninstallStartAllBack. Multiple solutions and workarounds allow you to continue using the app, at least for the time being!
How do I fix the StartAllBack black screen?
1. Update the StartAllBack app
If you can’t accessStartAllBackand are stuck on a black screen at startup> pressCtrl+Shift+Escto open theTask Manager> click onRun new task> enterchrome.exeand hitEnter> visitStartAllBack’s official website> download the latest app version.
2. Disable all taskbar customizations in StartAllBack
3. Uninstall recent Windows updates
