Microsoft plans major Start menu upgrades for Windows 11 with better customization and performance: Users will soon be able to resize it and toggle off entire areas of Start

Microsoft is working on a major update for the Windows 11 Start menu that is designed to give users more control over how the menu appears. According to sources familiar with the plans, these improvements are being developed as part of the new WinUI 3 Start menu that Microsoft has already confirmed is in the works.

I’m told that the new Start menu will look similar to the existing one, but will have more advanced customization options that can be configured in the Windows Settings app. Options for turning on or off specific sections as well as the ability to manually choose between either the small or large Start menu layout is being added.
