Windows 11, Start button menu, make it show all apps by default
Dear Microsoft,
To be CLEAR. I don't want your recommendations for my Start Menu. I don't want your recommendations for ANYTHING.
I want a clear and concise menu of ALL OF MY APPLICATIONS without you interferring in MY work processes or MY LIFE! And I want it to be the ONLY MENU I see when I click START.
I want a FULL right-click menu in File Explorer without needing to click "Show more...". This is YOU interferring with my work flow.
You are probably thinking you know better and your way drives engagement. NOBODY wants to engage with YOU, for any reason. We just want an operating system that works WITHOUT your interference and WITHOUT extra clicks (engagement).
Your only job here in an OS is to be invisible, never forcing your idiotic ideas on us, and provide useful process improving features like multiple desktops, Linux Subsystem, Window tile management. These are good features which don't additionally burden our already limited time.
Extra clicks, annoying changes, thinking WE NEED to get used to your way is stupid!! There are hundreds of millions of us working people you are pissing off, and just a few of you making these horrible decisions. Stop it already!
Thank you,
You can use https://github.com/valinet/ExplorerPatcher to get back the Windows 10 Taskbar and Start Menu (right-click the taskbar, select Properties after installing, and go to Start Menu on the left), and you can use "the tool that shall not be named" (when I typed win + aero it said content not permitted) to make it so you don't have to click Show more options on the right-click menu (go to Classic Full Context Menus under Windows 11). You can also right click on the taskbar and click Properties after installing ExplorerPatcher, then go to Start Menu and if you selected Windows 11 style you can have it open to All apps by default.
Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Hope these people read your comment and know it represents millions of us.
