    How do you configure the start screen?

    You appear to be showing shortcuts on part of your desktop..?

    You mention the right column- I don't recognise that, sorry. What is its origin?

    Desktop wallpaper:

    and there are various freeware apps and programs e.g.

    The fancy column of links and system info could be an app called Rainmeter, a highly configurable "dock" type app.

    Thanks for your advice.


    With a few clicks I found follow;

    Whether it is relevant?
