    In my laptop, what you see is what you get.
    However, If you have a small screen , then I don't know.
    My 15" laptop shows all the tiles and there is no scroll bar to go up and down.

    I can scroll up and down both the left and the right hand side using arrow keys. For right hand side you need to drag things underneath what is shown on your screen to get the scroll bar to appear. Works with start full screen on and off...

    That's strange.
    I am using my 17" Acer.
    I can not drag the icon beyond the bottom of the screen.
    It pops right back on screen.
    No scroll bar.

    Wait !

    I got it.
    It's not dragging the icon past the bottom. That does not work for me.
    I decreased the Start Menu width size by dragging the right border inwards.
    That squeezes the icons downwards and thus a scroll bar appears on the right side.

    But, I don't think that is the OP's problem.

    Up, Down, Left, Right Arrow keys to Select and then Enter to Activate.

    Actually you can use the arrow keys on the left and right sides of the Start menu. You need to use the Tab key to get to the right side of the menu first, then use the arrow keys.

    Takes me 7 presses of the Tab key to get to the right menu.

    Or you can press down arrow (or up arrow) then the right arrow. I find that easier as the Tab button seems miles away...

    So to open the top lhs tile: *Start ↓→↓ <enter>. It is what I do to open mail app (which is top left for me).

    Yup that way works too......I need MORE Coffee *Sleepy
    Mouse is way quicker......but I suppose those with lap tops that method is better. I've always had Desktops.
