Windows 10: How do I disable the start menu "auto expand" feature in 1909?

The has to be a way to disable this new "feature". It drives me nuts!

Auto-Expand Feature for Start Menu

I have seen no way to have the start menu auto expand for the all apps section of the menu. If you manually expand the menu so that you can see more of the apps installed on your machine, then you end up with a bunch of blank space when you first click on
your menu. Would be nice if there was an auto-expand setting.





Second feature that would be nice is the ability to put a system clock/notification area on both taskbars when you run multiple monitors. This is especially useful when you need to glance at the time but have a full-screen app open on the screen that contains
your primary taskbar.

Lastly, I have not found any way to tell the start menu to not show newly installed apps with the word new next to them. This was an optional setting in previous versions of windows. This is especially helpful in a domain environment when you are pushing
out apps centrally and don't need to alert the end user.

The last I heard, the feature was being offered to certain devices only, randomly.

Does any one know how to enable the new start menu auto-expand side icons?
