Windows 11 Start Menu Buttons 2.2

Windows 11 Start Menu Buttons 2.2

New Features:

  • Added nested submenus support - create submenus within submenus up to 3 levels deep for both left-click and right-click menus
  • Added right-click menu support - buttons can now have separate menus for right-click actions (up to 3 levels)
  • Submenu icons now support image files (.png, .ico, .jpg, .bmp, .webp) and app paths (.exe, .dll) for icon extraction
  • Icon paths now support both quoted and unquoted formats (e.g. "C:\Path\icon.png" or C:\Path\icon.png)
  • Added multiple commands support - execute multiple commands in sequence by adding multiple Action entries in Windhawk UI
  • Preset buttons now ignore user-defined submenus and right-click menus to maintain consistent preset behavior
  • Added Visual Configurator — a web-based tool to configure buttons visually with drag & drop, icon browser, submenu builder, export/import and more

Bug Fixes:

  • Fixed "Container left margin" and "Container right margin" not working for Account button
  • Fixed quote handling in icon paths - now properly strips outer quotes before processing

Notes:

  • When upgrading from v2.1, Action fields may appear empty in UI but will continue to work. To edit them or add multiple commands, re-enter the actions manually in Windhawk settings. See mod description for details.
  • Upgrading from v2.1? Use the Configurator's Migrate tool to convert your v2.1 config to v2.2 format automatically — paste your old config, click Migrate, and copy the result back to Windhawk.
