Windows 10: Start Menu Customization

Hi,
I want like Windows 7, I see the file shortcuts (not folders) at the top of start menu rather than in its alphabet folder.
I also want to disable showing alphabets A~Z and just show folders sorted by name.
Is that possible without using a 3rd party application?
Thanks.

:)

Start Menu Customization

Windows 10, will not let me customize the start menu. Crashes when I move apps around the screen.

Moved from Windows / Windows 10 / Windows settings

 

Yes just by creating a shortcut to the folders on the desktop then pin it to the start menu and move it to wherever you like (sorry if I'm wrong MS STILL haven't given me my windows 10 copy yet).

 

Sorry but you misunderstood! *Sad

 

Hello omidsolo, *Smile

You could use the free program Classic Shell for that if you like.

 

I am using this program with great results. It even has a feature where at he top of the "win7" start menu to go to the OEM win10 start menu.
