How to hide program names in the Windows 11 Start Menu and display only icons?

I'd like to remove all text labels from the Start Menu programs and display only icons to simplify the interface. Is that possible?

    Currently, Windows 11 does not provide a built-in option to hide program names in the Start Menu and display only icons. The Start Menu is designed to show both icons and labels for clarity and usability, and Microsoft has not included a feature to toggle just icons visibility within the default interface.
