  1. Is my start menu glitched or is this a feature?


    I can open the start menu just fine, but afterwards when I type any letter on my keyboards it hovers a white box over any app that begins with the letter I just typed, example. I want to play Overwatch, I click windows, I type "O" and instead of typing in the search box it hovers over the preassigned app "Outlook" if I type "O" again it hovers over the next app with "O" same with every letter. Now you would think just click the text box right? When I click that the start menu just disappears. I have tried troubleshooting, wand system restore, which I don't think worked, because it seems more o

    Feature suggestion: Add right-click menu

    Suggestion: Please add a Windows 7 Jump-List and/or right-click menu to the GPU-Z icon in the Windows taskbar. Possible menus in it would be "Exit" and "About GPU-Z...".
    Maybe also "Switch to tab 1/Switch to tab 2/Switch to videocard 1/Switch to videocard 2" too.
    Examples of programs that have such menus are ICQ, Skype, AIM.

    NOTE: It seems for a right-click menu, Windows 7 is not needed - it works on WinXP and Vista too.
    But even a Windows 7 Jump-list may be good enough.
    What do you think?
     
  3. Need old Windows Start menu

    Hi,

    I realize that you need the old Windows start menu. I will try to help you with this issue.

    You can click the hash icon located above the 3D Builder icon to check if that helps.

    Suggest you to follow these steps to check if that helps:


    • Press Windows key + I to get the Settings screen.

    • Click on Personalization and click Start.

    • Enable the feature for “use start full screen”.

    Keep us informed to help you further.

    Thank you.
     
  4. Is my start menu glitched or is this a feature?

    Windows 10 Start menu is empty

    Hi. Steps 1 and 2 didn't do much but step 3 has restored what looks like the list of original Microsoft apps but no sign of any of the many apps I have installed. And there are no tiles in the start menu. Any suggestions please?
