Win 11 Start Menu... How's your Win 10 Menu?
-
From what I have seen so far, the centered start menu in win 11 will no longer allow custom grouping, only a group of "pinned" apps but not freely organized. I think this is a huge step back. How is your current win10 start menu organized? do you use the customization features it offers or do you ignore most of the features? To see what I mean, here's my start menu. Start menu[^] How about yours?

I do not use the tiles at all (the totally hidden) and almost never the menu itself... I use RocketDock to access my applications...

I also despise the tiles and blocky look. I've been using Classic Start Menu. Apparently the hooks to replace the start menu have been removed? I sure hope someone finds a workaround.

DivWindow: Size, drag, minimize, and maximize floating windows with layout persistenceClassic start menu here too. I want a menu that's concise and that I can organise myself. I'm colour blind so coloured icons don't really do it for me. What really irks me is that when installing Office, I have to rename all of the links so that I can access them with a keystroke; it's no good when every sodding link starts with the word "Microsoft". But "Word", "Excel", "Access" - just tap W, E or A on the keyboard and you're away. You'd think someone in the Windows team would have quietly taken someone in the Office team aside and had a gentle word in their ear.

My guess as to why is that they want to show ads on the start menu, and they don't want you to be able to avoid them.
The difficult we do right away... ...the impossible takes slightly longer.

++ for OpenShell, Rocket Dock and/or Winstep Nexus Dock. I've hated all the Start Menus since Win7.
if google'd all three of them... never heard of any of these and from the screenshots i saw this is almost exactly the opposite of what i want windows to be. No, thanks. But thank you for naming them - as I said - never heard of these and I am always interested in seeing something new. But those... nope. Not for me. If I want something like MacOS i would USE MacOS. Apple-free-zone here. Fruits and electricity are no good partners. Only exceptions are potatoes and lemons.:cool:
