That's the reason I chose for Classic Shell. What I hate is just the layout and inability to fully configure stuff the way you want it to be.Ĭan Classic Shell, now or in future versions, allow such options to reconfigure the start menu?Ĭlassic Shell version 4.2.1 installs just fine on Windows 10 pro, but disappears after every reboot.ĭon't know why, but Windows 10's startup menu doesn't appear, only every once in a while after pressing 10 times on the button. But design-wise, I sort of like the Win 10 start menu's transparency and some of the icons. Yes, for now that seems the ONLY real option. I know all of you will be like "Use Classic Shell and adjust it so that you still use the classic menu'. taskbar is and always will be for the programs that are currently used. ![]() From Win 7, they want to clutter our taskbars by making us 'pin' things there. That is REALLY where my 2-3 MOST used apps are. option to disable all of the stuff that we don't need.Īt least there's a way to still use the quick launch bar, which I love. Drag&drop everywhere inside the start menu. When I look at this, I think: instead of the stupid 'most used' apps list, why can't I use that space for adding shortcuts/folders that I really need? How can I re-locate the 'all apps' menu just under that 'most used' list? Did nobody think that instead of having a stupid scroll menu for 'all apps', the list could just expand on the new tiles area that they added? (this would've been perfect!). My younger brother got the official update today and his start menu looks like this: Some way, he's kept the tile part unchanged and I think that is really one of the only good things about the Win 10 start menu. But the white background is so Windows 7ish. I'll just relink it here:Īt least his left column seems nicer, because he can (somehow) add stuff there. And as you can see, I've sorted the stuff I use/want under those folders which expand and reveal the shortcuts that I need under that category.ĭagello posted a link here a while ago with a screenshot that looks a bit better than the original Win 10 start menu. I can do this on my own Windows, you need not interfere or hold my hand. But for me, I've always used it for categorizing the programs and stuff that I use most.

The shut down/log off icons, although they look old, they are where they should be - just above the start button. My current OS is Win 7 Pro and this is how I use the start menu, with the help of trusty Classic Shell. give the people who think/use differently the chance to do it. Well if you did, please give us the tools and options to configure things. Now I should be happy with 'new' layouts, because somebody thought it was better. I might be old school with this, but seriously, the good old classic menu just. Microsoft, don't tell people how things should be done just because you think it's 'easy'. I still do think that people should at least be allowed to configure/adjust their OS the way they want it to be. I can not drag and drop anything to that area since the cursor changes to a complete denial over such an action. Yeah! But if I do, I can not use that free space for anything else (shortcuts?).
