Windows 10 Start menu can't handle more than 512 items

That is pathetic. What's even more disgraceful is that Windows 10 Pro is $300 - $130 more than what I paid for genuine Windows 8.1 Pro and has less features AND has more bugs. I think I'm done with Microsoft and their shit products.

Put your marketing head on.. You mean "simpler with cutting edge enhancements" :laugh:
How do you know so much about swallows? Well, you have to know these things when you're a king, you know.
Lol, actually, what I meant was "sh--ter than sh-t but better than 8.1." I think that is all it would take to entice most people to upgrade from 8.1 to 10 lol

I think there should be a campaign to rebrand Windows 8/8.1 as Windows BE (Ballmer Edition) :laugh:

Crapplications that install a dozen or more items make it quite possible to hit the limit. My work PC has ~560 folders and shortcuts on its W7 start menu. Since W10 is folder free I think I'd be clear; but dangerously close to the limit. In particular, the ones written by duhvelopers that are ignoring a decade of MS guidance and putting uninstallers and a half dozen documentation shortcuts on the desktop deserve to be stomped into the mud by a herd of elephants. I'm curious what my home pc's menu looks like; if I remember I'll do a second count there too. Like at work it's an old profile that's accumulated a lot of stuff over the years.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason? Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful? --Zachris Topelius Training a telescope on one’s own belly button will only reveal lint. You like that? You go right on staring at it. I prefer looking at galaxies. -- Sarah Hoyt

Agreed ... e.g. I install AutoDesk's Revit (i.e. that one single program) which places around 60 shortcuts in 10 folders in W7's start menu (most of them just silly cr@p like readme files, settings & version migration tools, etc.). But, it's still sad isn't it? Both that this might mean W10's start mean-U reaches its limits with just a handful of proggies installed, as well as that some proggies use up so many items in that mean-U.

Forgot 8.1 doesn't have an equivalent list; and restoring a 7 backup image in a VM is way too much work.
