Select the start menu or start screen< Br> First, you can work in the start menu or the start screen environment. Below we assume that you are in the start menu mode.
——Click the Start button and then tap Settings.
—— In the settings interface, click the <quo;system” option.
—— In the system interface, click the “ tablet mode” option.
—— In the tablet mode interface, you will see an option called "Start tablet mode for tablet and touch optimization system".
——Start this option, but then click the Start button and you will be taken to the start screen. At this time, if you want to see the start menu again, click the three bars icon in the upper left corner, also known as the “Hamburger” icon. At this time, the start menu and the start screen are coexisting.

Click "&#" when I log in to the drop-down box, you can choose to enter the tablet mode immediately, that is, start the screen, or choose to enter the desktop mode, by default is the start menu, or return to the previous mode.
Although it is called tablet mode, the option to select the start menu or the start screen is common in any device. I tried the above operations on tablets and desktops, and the process was almost identical.
Adjust the size of the start menu
Assuming you choose the start menu environment, but find that the start menu is too small, you can not accommodate all the porcelain stickers you want to add, then you can adjust its size.
—— Make sure the tablet mode is off and click the Start button to return to the Start menu.
—— Move the cursor to the top border of the start menu.
—— Drag the cursor to increase the height of the menu. On the other hand, you can also drag the cursor to lower the height of the menu.
—— You can also drag the right border to the right to increase the width of the start menu, or drag the right border to the left to reduce the width of the start menu. However, in the latest version of the Windows 10 Technology Preview, this operation is not as smooth. Suffice to see, Microsoft still has a lot of bugs to fix.

The first setting determines that you will see the applications and content that Microsoft recommends, the second setting controls whether the most recently opened program appears in the Start menu, and the third setting controls the recently added application group.
