The redesigned Start menu is arguably one of the most divisive features in Windows 11. It needed more translucency?
Or more icons? (the answer is always icons)
|

And at that it misses the single biggest problem with the last few iterations of the start menu in it's default form.
99.9% of the time I only want results from 1 location or the other. The start menu has been the local system search hub since whatever OS version first added the feature. The web browser has been the internet search location since they started adding search boxes and search functions to the address bar a few decades ago.
Un![Elephant | [mastadon]](https://www.codeproject.com/script/Forums/Images/elephant.gif) ing this is one of the first things I do on any new OS install. MS has made this progressively more difficult (the linked Twitter thread implies it's currently a group policy, which is a PITA to set on a non-business machine and could be completely locked out on something that is joined to a domain). They also have made decisions around other integrations that clearly never considered that anyone would want to split the function. ex I never once even tried to use Cortana for anything; fixing start menu search always disabled it.

The Windows 11 start menu is a huge step backwards from the Windows 10 start menu. Windows 10 allowed a user to configure their start menu in a way that made it efficient for use. Remember, from a visual cortex view point, the human mind is 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, scanning. In other words we can detect instantly up to five objects (actually 15 if in a 5x3 grid) but any more requires we scan to find what we're looking for. Windows 10 allowed you to do this; Windows 11 doesn't.

The reason it's so incomplete vs previous versions is that, in support of some mobile project that ended up being cancelled, a completely new menu was designed to work for that use case. In order to pretest that project wasn't a total loss, it's crappled start menu and task bar was dragged into the main windows build.

In my opinion, what it needs is an option to behave the way it used to be. Win11 also needs an option to select the location where you want the taskbar. Those two issues make it easy for me to stay with Win10.

So far over 400 people have joined the .NET MAUI Cloud Skills Challenge to learn all about developing mobile and desktop apps with .NET MAUI and get some awesome stickers. Because I know you're all about the stickers
"We’re extending the challenge from August 31 to September 30 so more people can join in!" <- so, you were expecting many more people to sign up?

I suppose 300 of them are hackers trying to get some steps ahead for later...

Punctuation is important! I read this as "FBI Crooks are using..."

That's likely better: because those under-performers just lack basic discipline.
It works on my machine! - done.
Write tests - no.
What can go wrong - that's negativity.
Write understandable code - why?
Etc.
