    What a PROPER start menu should look like

    Hi there

    Was just suggesting that the logical place for a search function is surely at the TOP of a list - as W10 is still in "Design phase" I can't see anything wrong in making suggestions that could be popular. The fact that I was showing a Linux start menu was irrelevant -- just giving an example where the search is at the logical place at the TOP of a list.

    Surely when an OS is still in some sort of design stage this is the time to suggest what I would imagine to be a sensible logical improvement.

    Cheers

    Windows 10 Start menu is empty

    Hi. Steps 1 and 2 didn't do much but step 3 has restored what looks like the list of original Microsoft apps but no sign of any of the many apps I have installed. And there are no tiles in the start menu. Any suggestions please?

    Recycle bin shows a menu list on left side of screen. Looks like a duplicate of the owners menu list. only been doing this for 3 days. Don't know what I did to start that.

  10. What a PROPER start menu should look like

    in Windows 10 Support
    What a PROPER start menu should look like: Hi there IMO a DECENT functioning start menu should be totally user customiseable with a SEARCH at the TOP rather than at the bottom of the screen. Here's an example from Linux KDE desktop --totally customiseable. You can switch it too to a "classic cascadable Menu"...
