  2. 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! All letter keys starting selecting the apps from desktop :)

    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!

    There is no way to remove the letters.
    They are a carry over from 8.
    The Windows 10 menu is an updated desktop version of the metro UI in 8.

    It is designed to reduce or eliminate scrolling.
    Clicking a letter takes one to an install title.
    It is up to the developer to generate a proper name.
    The menu can only work with what it is given.
