Windows 11, Start button menu, make it show all apps by default
I upgraded to Windows 11 this week and I don't like the new Start button menu. I don't want "pinned" apps. I want to see All Apps in a list like before. Why don't we get the option to choose how w...
You are not satisfy with the new design and user interface of the Windows 11, is that correct?
In this case, I advise you to open start and search for feedback and open Feedback Hub app and file a suggestion and explain why you don't like these features and what is your expectation.

To disable the Classic Start Menu, and re-enable the Windows 11 Start Menu, Taskbar, and Apps, run these commands in this order:
1.) Start Powershell -> Start Menu -> Run -> taskmgr -> File -> Run new Task -> %SystemRoot%\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\powershell.exe -> Select "Create this task with administrative privileges." -> Click OK.
Change the execution policy so you can run scripts locally:
2.) Set-ExecutionPolicy -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -Scope LocalMachine -Force;
Run this in Powershell to reverse the Start Menu / Taskbar changes:
3.) Set-ItemProperty -Path "HKLM:\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Shell\Update\Packages" -Name "UndockingDisabled" -Value "00000000"
4.) Set-ItemProperty -Path "HKCU:\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Search" -Name "SearchboxTaskbarMode" -Value "00000001";
5.) Set-ItemProperty -Path "HKCU:\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer" -Name "NoTaskGrouping" -Value "00000000";
Restart Explorer to see the taskbar changes:
6.) ./taskkill /f /im explorer.exe;
7.) ./CMD /Q /C START /REALTIME explorer.exe;
Reinstall ALL Apps first:
8.) Get-AppXPackage -AllUsers | Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register "$($_.InstallLocation)\AppXManifest.xml"};
Reset All Apps:
9.) Get-AppxPackage | Reset-AppxPackage;
