    Bring back the classic start menu!

    I did a detail-by-detail comparison of the Windows 7 Start menu and the Windows 10 Start menu and found them virtually identical in
    functionality - by that I mean they do virtually all the same tasks. They just look different.

    Almost all of the functionality that Windows 10 appears to be missing can be added back. For example, you can pin Control Panel and Help and Support to Start as tiles. You can add folders to All apps.

    There are few clear differences. Favorites is not there because Microsoft has dropped that feature and replaced it by Quick Access. There's no longer a link in the Start menu for This PC but that was redundant anyway, since File Explorer gets you to the
    same place.

    In my case, I don't like the way the new Start menu looks and I don't like that I have to make changes to make it work like the Windows 7 Start menu. So I gave Stardock five bucks for Start10 and I'm very happy.

    The Windows 10 Start menu is not going away and it's never going to look like Windows 7. So get over it. Either learn to like it or get a Start menu replacement and move on.

    Bring back the classic start menu!

    searching for apps we've installed is a pointless task we need to see them no search

    Should Microsoft Bring Back the Start Menu in Windows 9? Many Say No

    Classic Shell does a nice job for me, so as long as it is available for Windows 9, it won't matter to me if MS doesn't bring back the start menu.
