Deskscapes is Great! I really like having videos as my wallpaper. Deskscapes installed well. Accessing and using settings was easy and clear. It worked well as expected, even with 10 hour space videos from Youtube. Only complaint I have is with how it handles sound. Even though I set the sound to 0, I still hear sound. I have to mute the sound in windows sound settings to get no sound. Also, I am using a playlist and have it set to change every hour. It is not doing that. It only changes when I reboot or the video ends (I am using 10 hour videos). Other than those two things, It works Great! The selection of backgrounds animated backgrounds available is extensive. Definitely worth the money.

its just a great joy to use stardock its just a great joy to use stardock. I have been using it before professionally. A trimmed windows server with stardock on it was the best engine for a laptop running virtual machines, still is :)

Deskscapes stopped working Deskscapes stopeed working. This may be because I am using the latest beta of Windows 11. Tried uninstalling and reinstall, uploaded CODEC etc. no joy. Update 3 April 2024 Received response to update the review (or delete) it from Stardock. Try troubleshooting from theior site and still it does not work?

Great Software and amazing Games First of all, i am very satisfied with Startdocks Products, Sins of a Solar Empire 1 and 2 i purchased both as a Fan and RTS Lover, so amazing Games, they offer really large tech trees, huge variety of units and so much more. As Windows 11 came out, i missed the old windows 10 side Bar Menu, which allowed pinning of apps and so on. That is where Start 11 came in, it has a beautiful design and its a must have for windows 11 users. (I cant live without it anymore) V2 adds more, but the upgrading process is not that detailed explained. (If someone is looking for an answer, google for the Start11 v2 Upgrade FAQ Post.) Overall, i had a great experience with Startdock over many years and i will continue to support them :)

Great animated backgrounds Great animated backgrounds (my preference) with good graphic impact. Though they're loops, the sequence is well meshed and end result is very nice. Looking forward to future releases of more space and natural (sea, forests, etc.) animated backgrounds.
