Most of us know that Microsoft has added the most requested features i.e. Start Menu, in the Windows 10 operating system. Still, some people are confused about whether Microsoft removed the Start Screen from Windows 10 and replaced it. With Start Menu? I have received a lot of emails from readers being asked the same question.

Chuyển giữa Start Menu và Start Screen trong Windows 10

Let me clear all doubts! The Start Screen in Windows 10 still exists, but when you install Windows 10, the new Start Menu is activated by default. Age Start Screen is disabled but can be activated using the simple option provided in the New Settings app.

You can have a Start Menu or Start Screen at a time. You cannot enjoy both together. So it’s up to you whether you want to enjoy the new Start Menu or use the old Start Screen.
