    "Taskbar and Start Menu Properties" has no "Start Menu" tab

    Hi Andrey,

    Thank you for contacting Microsoft Community. Your interest in Windows 10 is much appreciated.

    I would like to inform you that there is no option “start menu” in the taskbar settings. Now it is replaced in settings tab as below.

    • In the search box type settings.
    • Click on personalization and click on start option.
    • Then you have the options.
    Also I suggest you to provide us a feedback using the feedback app.

    Hope this information was helpful and do let us know if you need further assistance. We will be glad to assist.

    start menu tab missing from win10 "taskbar and start menu properties"

    I am trying to clear the history list in start menu and taskbar automatically recorded in win 10. However, the "start menu" tab is missing from the "taskbar and start menu properties".

    There is a link to show how the "start menu" tab looks like.

    http://winsupersite.com/windows-10/windows-10-tip-customize-start-menu

    But mine is missing, and also the other three tabs in "taskbar and start menu properties" might not look right. I attached snapshots for them here.

    the "navigation" tab in my win 10 also looks different from the one posted on the link.

    Start Menu tab missing in Windows 10 Taskbar properties

    How I can bring back the "start menu" tab back to "taskbar and start menu properties"?

    or is there another way to clear the history of lists the programs, files, folders, and websites that I opened from the start menu and taskbar? Thanks!

    why is my taskbar like this? alt tabbing and start menu are also weird now

    Start Menu tab is not in "Taskbar and Start Menu Properties"

    When I right-click on any blank space on my start menu, nothing comes up. I wanted to fix this so I right-clicked on my taskbar and went to "Taskbar and Start Menu Properties". There is not "Start Menu" tab listed here.

    I went online and found no answers for this issue. It seems that you SHOULD be able to right-click on your start menu to configure it.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
