Microsoft’s New Windows 11 Start Menu Is Finally Worth Exploring

Last Updated: 01.07.2025 03:11

Scrollable app list — no more clicking through “All apps”; everything’s instantly accessible.

Two view modes — choose between grid layout or smart categories like Work, Play, and Tools.

This isn’t just a visual refresh. It’s a real usability upgrade — something Windows hasn’t delivered in a while. Whether you're working, gaming, or multitasking, this new Start menu feels faster, cleaner, and actually enjoyable to use.

What did someone say to you that instantly made you realize their life was in danger?

Adaptive scaling — large screens get up to 8 columns of pinned apps, small screens get 6, all perfectly responsive.

If you use a gamepad or handheld PC, the new on-screen keyboard supports full navigation without a mouse or touchscreen. Logging in from your couch just got easier.

🚀 What’s New?

What do you think of Hegseth calling The Atlantic journalist Jeffrey Goldberg, "a deceitful and highly discredited so-called journalist who has made a profession of peddling hoaxes” after team Trump texted him their top-secret war plans on Yemen?

More customization — hide the "Recommended" section, rearrange app groups, and get more control over layout.

New toggles — quickly access Phone Link and other utilities straight from Start.
