    As long as I can delete all those tiles I don't care what they do.

    That's easy, its called Windows 7, Kidding aside, good luck with that. Some are easy to uninstall, some not so much. Un installing some, through other means, will likely break or cripple your system. I'd be happy if Microsoft would just let me hide the ones I never use, but the system needs.

    Delete or disable so not seen will equate to the same thing for me. Never been a fan of those tiles and have zero use for them.

    I do use some Apps, and the tiles for programs I install like Office. There are some bundled Apps, with no uninstall option, that I never ever use, I'd like to see an option to remove them from the Start Menu or Screen. It's just clutter for me. I boot to desktop and have my use everyday stuff pinned to my taskbar. Other stuff I use occasionally is pinned to my Start Screen. I don't have to use the All Apps very often these days.

    Microsoft can adapt and have the classic windows 7 start menu with a toggle off or on option if they really want to nip this start menu project off their must do list before Windows 10 2016 gets dropped at the end of July 2016.

    So users will have a choice of both worlds or a 3rd choice without going down the path of second party apps to get back what most are used too.

    It only takes a minute or two to add these feature while they have their working version on open source or unlocked.

    While I have no interest in a Windows 7 like Start menu in Windows 10, I'm not against it being an option if you want it. I'd like to have a more Windows 8.1 type of deal than the current Windows 10 start Screen/Start Menu. It will be interesting to see what comes down the pipe in the end.

    It would make sense in general as a marketing tool, and don't forget their are folks up in the years who still haven't got around with the new UI menu and perhaps never will, I just want everyone pleased across the board old folks and new comers, like a said it only takes a min to write and tie in, and compile that windows 7 menu part over while the code is open

    I agree lets wait and see in July how Window 2016 looks like.

    Thanks. Alphanumeric

    The problem, as I see it, with a Windows 7 style Start Menu, is there would be no live tiles. I'm not sure Microsoft wants that as an option. I'm assuming if you tick that option you wouldn't have any Start Screen. To be honest, I wouldn't hold my breath waiting for a Windows 7 type Start Menu to show up in Windows 10. Just my opinion, I don't know any more about what they have planed than the next guy.

    Guess I am just old fashioned and stuck in my ways........I will continue to use Stardock's Start 10 so I can stick with the old windows 7 start menu........

    I will at least go back and give the 10 menu another try whenever it is updated.........but I am not sure I see anything that interesting here, but that is just this old man's opinion....

    For those who fine uninstalling apps icons from the menu/start menu simply unpin them. . .as to the new menu no big deal will just stay with the Start screen. . ."Don't need no Silly Menu. . .
