Win 11 24 H2, cannot center start button

[stupiware]

Hi
I am using taskbar on top, with centered icons. But start and search buttons are still on the left.

taskbar style - windows 10 explorer patcher (the only one that allows taskbar on top)
start menu style - windows 11
position on screen - center

Does the start menu and search get shown in the center when the taskbar is on the bottom?

Please also post windows version and build. You can find this by running winver. Please include if you are running x86-64 or Arm. And what language your windows is in.
Please post explorer patcher version, by running EP properties application and click on About on the left side.

Yes, Start button is on the left, even if the taskbar is on the bottom.
