How do I go back to start 10?

from Stardock Forums

I installed start 11 over start 10. How do I go back to start 10?  Can I just install 10 over 11 or do I need to uninstall 11 first?

I would recommend uninstalling Start11 first. If you don't, you risk having some Start11 registry entries hanging around to screw with Start10.

Absolutely.

Best practice is to uninstall Start11 and reboot. Then install Start10 and reboot.

Is there a particular reason you want to go back?

Doesn't work as good for search as 10.  When I go to start and search for a program and when I right click it shows properties in start 10 but not in start 11. In start 11 I have to do more steps to get to properties. I have to search, right click open file location then when another window opens right click on the program and select properties

You can enable start10 style search in start11.

This is a setting on the search page near the bottom.
