When I first used Windows 10/11, I felt that it was very easy to get started. The new interface File Manager and the “Start Screen” that had mixed reviews may seem quite smooth and perfect, but after using it, it was almost criticized by public opinion. Because there is no hierarchical menu to display the menu, it makes ordinary users feel out of place. Although Windows 10/11 will return the Start menu, the new functions and features still cannot stop many people from returning to Windows. 7. To put it bluntly, the biggest reason is that the traditional “Start Menu Menu” cannot be forgotten for the time being. Don’t be so melancholy and pessimistic. Install it. Start Menu 8 PRO You can now have a traditional “Start Menu” in Windows 10/11.
