10 Ways To Customize Your Windows 10 Start Menu
The Start Menu is one of the most used features on Windows compυters as it hosts options to aсcess your files and apps. You can actually customize the Windows 10 Start Menu if you don’t like the default tiles, layouts, or even the color of the menu. Windows gives you the ability to change the look and feel of the menu to your liking.
This gives you an opportunity to remove unwanted items from the menu and make it decluttered, add your most useful apps to the list, get rid of app suggestions, and even enlarge the menu to cover your entire screen.
Resize The Start Menu
On most computers, the Windows 10 Start Menu only occupies a part of your screen real estate. If you want it to stretch and cover more area on your screen, you can customize the Windows 10 start menu in this way by dragging it to whatever direction you want it to stretch into.
- Open the Start Menu on your PC.
- Bring your cursor to the edges of the menu and your cursor will turn into arrows.

Add An App Tile
- Open the menu and find the app you want to add a tile for.
- Right-click on the app and select Pin to Start.
- A tile for your app will be added to the menu.
