    Ok.. if you had Classic Shell set up there is a ICON on the top that toggles you to the Start Scree. It's in the same place that my name would be found.

    You would press on that and bingo! Start Screen. Let me go over to win 8 and post an image.

    Yup and that's why MS has brought it back to W10, because many people agree with you. However, for those of us who have grown to like and use the W 8.1 Start Screen, hopefully it will be available to use in W10 on non touch screens. Having the choice to set W10 up the way each user wants, would be a good thing IMHO.

    In my Win8.1.1 OS I have classic shell and there is a button you can press to take you directly to the start screen. That would be nice to have in the Win10 start menu.

    OK, I got ya!
    'StartIsBack' had that too. As a matter of fact, with StartIsBack, I could open the Start Screen on one monitor and the Start Menu on the other!
    Here's an idea, see if you can find that file and make a custom .vbs file from the info! *Wink

    ... that is to say, I could have StartIsBack open on one monitor and the Start Screen open on the other:

    I like the layout on the left side with the usual grouping of programs that one would need.

    Dissapointed but not suprised.

    Both options (Menu & Screen) must be available and easy to access and configure.

    Almost got it!
    I created a shortcut of Shawn's handy 'Toggle Start Menu/Start Screen' .vbs file...

    https://www.tenforums.com/tutorials/2...text-menu.html

    ...gave it an icon and pinned it to the Start Menu:


    Dissapointed but not suprised. [​IMG]


    The only problem is, it only takes you to the Start Screen once from a fresh start, after that it takes you to the desktop!
    Maybe Shawn can modify the file to bring up the Start Screen every time. *Wink
