    Disable start menu in tablet mode


    I really wanna use tablet mode for my HTPC. The onscreen keyboard is perfect for my purposes. The only problem is that the start menu will pop up over certain applications at times. Is there any way to disable it altogether or default to the desktop when no apps are open? Thanks!

    :)

    My homescreen now shows all these icons, how do I get rid of them?

    That is the Start Menu and is displayed by default when in tablet mode

    Click on the Notifications (white speech box next to time)to display the option to enable/disable tablet mode.

    Windows 10, no start menu option.

    Hi,

    Windows 10 has ability to show Start Screen as well as Start Menu. This OS can work as your Tablet or Desktop.

    If you are in Desktop mode, you can switch between Start Screen or Start Menu. Here is a step by step how to article which will tell you how.

    How to change Start Menu in Windows 10

    If you are in Tablet mode, you have to disable it first. To disable, click on Notification Icon (icon of messenger or chat) near by System Date time in right bottom corner (by default) and click on Tablet to disable.
