    desktop changed, floating start menu, no settings, etc..


    I"m not sure what I did, but my desktop has changed. I tried to attach a screenshot, but don't think I did it correctly.

    Here's what it looks like when I touch the start button.
    -My start menu items are floating sort of to the right, in the position they normall are.
    -However, this is where it gets wierd.
    -Veritically, on the left
    1. Start button
    2. a button which brings up All Programs
    3. Power button
    <large blank space>
    4. All the way at the top, a button which when clicked shows most used apps.

    Hi,
    Welcome to the forum

    It looks like you have accidentally turned on Tablet Mode

    If you go to the Action Centre and click Tablet Mode it should turn it off and return to normal
