    2004 feature update made start menu useless.


    #1 The update was automatically pushed on me. I thought feature updates were supposed to only be installed if you chose to do it when your on the current version? I was on 1909




    #2 After updating to 2004 the search box opens when I hit the start button covering half the dame screen. Is this intentional?


    Version 1909 before May feature update.

    Luckily I was able to roll back to my previous build.

    Feature suggestion: Add right-click menu

    Suggestion: Please add a Windows 7 Jump-List and/or right-click menu to the GPU-Z icon in the Windows taskbar. Possible menus in it would be "Exit" and "About GPU-Z...".
    Maybe also "Switch to tab 1/Switch to tab 2/Switch to videocard 1/Switch to videocard 2" too.
    Examples of programs that have such menus are ICQ, Skype, AIM.

    NOTE: It seems for a right-click menu, Windows 7 is not needed - it works on WinXP and Vista too.
    But even a Windows 7 Jump-list may be good enough.
    What do you think?
     
  3. Kill the letters! (Start menu apps list.)


    One final hack/adjustment and I will be at peace.
    So far no-one has come up with a way to remove the stupid letters from the start menu apps list... have they?

    Please do NOT suggest third part apps.
    I value the right click menu features on the Start button and all the third party Start Menu apps screw with this.
    I don't want another program, I just want the stupid clumsy letters gone!

    Any creative geniuses out there?
    I'm not the only one who wants this, surely! 2004 feature update made start menu useless. :)

    And it doesn't even work...
    Is the name of the program used to determine where the app goes or the name of the company that makes the program.. or even whether it's free or not!
    (See image F for Free!)
    Useless and pathetic Microsoft!

    Need old Windows Start menu

    Hi,

    I realize that you need the old Windows start menu. I will try to help you with this issue.

    You can click the hash icon located above the 3D Builder icon to check if that helps.

    Suggest you to follow these steps to check if that helps:


    • Press Windows key + I to get the Settings screen.

    • Click on Personalization and click Start.

    • Enable the feature for “use start full screen”.

    Keep us informed to help you further.

    Thank you.
