Adaptive scaling — large screens get up to 8 columns of pinned apps, small screens get 6, all perfectly responsive.

This isn’t just a visual refresh. It’s a real usability upgrade — something Windows hasn’t delivered in a while. Whether you're working, gaming, or multitasking, this new Start menu feels faster, cleaner, and actually enjoyable to use.

🎮 Bonus: Controller-Friendly Keyboard

What happened to everybody's thick skin? It used to be that people really didn't get offended, now however, everybody gets offended by the least little thing.

If you use a gamepad or handheld PC, the new on-screen keyboard supports full navigation without a mouse or touchscreen. Logging in from your couch just got easier.

🚀 What’s New?

Microsoft has quietly rolled out one of the most user-friendly changes to Windows 11 in months — a redesigned Start menu that finally makes navigation smoother and more intuitive.

More customization — hide the "Recommended" section, rearrange app groups, and get more control over layout.

Two view modes — choose between grid layout or smart categories like Work, Play, and Tools.

New toggles — quickly access Phone Link and other utilities straight from Start.

We can't afford AC and its so hot, theres literally pools of sweat on the couch (TMI sorry) what can I do? I have a ceiling fan but my room feels still feels like a sauna. Any tips to stay cool? I can't fall asleep at night😭
