    Start menu side shrunk.


    Not sure where to post this.

    I opened the Start button > found the entire left side of Start Menu has been shrunk. See screenshot below.
    How do I put it back to normal ? I have tried the icons on the left side but they are not what I need to fix it.

    Windows 10 Start menu is empty

    Hi. Steps 1 and 2 didn't do much but step 3 has restored what looks like the list of original Microsoft apps but no sign of any of the many apps I have installed. And there are no tiles in the start menu. Any suggestions please?

    Start menu side shrunk.

    Why is my windows 10 start menu different from the original


    The Start menu has had a makeover for the Anniversary Update (1607). The main change is that you no longer need to click on All Apps to open the list, scroll down a bit and you'll find it already open beneath 'Suggested'. To make space for this, Settings, Power etc. have been shrunk to icons on the left edge. Click the three solid line at the top left to expand them out to 'icons with names' as they used to appear.
