Windows 10: Show us your Start Screen/Menu!

In continuing the Windows 8 tradition, let's see your Start Screen or your Menu if you're into that! *Cool




I haven't done much here yet, this is my VM to toy around with before I install onto my SSD.

Have to say, I really want the Windows 8 style Start back. Muscle memory has me wanting to hit Start, and then quickly mouse over to the This PC tile in the lower left corner. There is no more lower left corner. *Sad

:)

 

How how do you always display text for start menu folders?

Hi,

Start Menu is one of the feature enhanced in Windows 10. You can customize Start Menu by following these steps:

• Open Settings.
• Choose Personalization.
• Click Start.

These are the options that you can see under Start:

• With the Show more tiles, you can expand tile column.
• Turning on Occasionally show suggestions in Start will show suggestions in Windows 10.
  
• Show most used apps will show most used apps list on Start Menu.
  
• Enabling Show recently added apps will display the program you installed last.
  
• You can also view Start Menu in full screen by enabling Use Start full screen.
• Show recently opened items in Jump Lists on Start or the taskbar
  will show your recently opened items.
• To choose what apps or folders you like to appear on you Start Menu, you can click
  Choose which folders appear on Start.

Note: You can also resize the Start Menu by simply dragging the top or the right edge of the Start Menu.

Let us know how it goes.

 

Start Menu issue

I've actually never seen such a glitch. It's funny how kids/pets can somehow cause mayhem in the blink of an eye!

Since all your shortcuts are still there it seems they're just not showing up in the menu for some reason. I assume you've already tried restarting? If you tend to shut down your system and turn it on again then specifically restart it once (yes, there's
a potential difference) to check if anything changes.

If that doesn't help, try this: Open the Settings app > Personalization > Start > Enable the option to
Use Start full screen. See if all your Start Menu items show up in the full-screen Start Screen. If they do, toggle that setting again to go back to the Start Menu and hopefully it'll be fixed too.

 

Mine with Cortana up, and my Lock screen cuz it looks nicer than the Start Screen! *Wink

I had Already created a thread earlier, but since this is where the thread should really be I'll ask admins to merge mine into this one.

Agree with you! SB fixed it!

Well, there is this *Biggrin










Of course in apps view, but there it is.

And this will probably continue since it does work.

 

I'm using the desert theme for now

 

I also created a thread if you are not happy with the default colors: Change the default Color of the Start Menu & Taskbar

From the Store it is called Clock Tile Pro but the author has a few free ones that uses the same skins & faces like Clock, Clock Tile DIY but with the free versions you have to rebuild your tile a few times a day and cannot save custom clocks.

Jeff *Smile @BunnyJ, Another good clock that I had that is totally free (No Strings) Was "Digital Live Tile Clock but it would quit running on previous Win 10 Builds. I just reinstalled it on 9926 and will see if it keeps running.
