- Microsoft is bringing great changes to its Windows 11 start menu
- Users can now separate applications into categories or use the traditional grid view
- It is available to test for evaluators, almost on time for hand computers Rog Xbox Ally
Microsoft is bringing a handful of changes to its Windows 11 operating system in preparation for hand computers Rog Xbox Ally. Beta testers are already beginning to see improvements in the user interface, and a feature can be a significant help for navigation.
As reported by Verge, Microsoft is improving its Windows 11 start menu, now available for testers, with more customization options to facilitate displacement and search for applications. These can be classified into separate categories (as evident in the image below) or used in the classical grid view.
While all applications have always been accessible through the start menu, this improved version makes finding its application much easier. Instead of finding a specific application through its first letter or symbol, you can simply jump into a folder of ‘games’ or folder of ‘browsers’, eliminating the need to enable desktop icons.
The ‘Recommended’ section can also be disabled, since recently opened files or folders are shown to leave space for more applications, and now new categories. It is also worth noting that Microsoft states that the start menu will be larger, which will vary depending on the size of the screen or the device used.
These are perfectly aligned for the new login screen that allows users to enter their pin using a game controller, and it is likely to be a preparation for the “full -screen experience” update for new Windows 11 hand computers 11. However, there is a great benefit that OLED users monitor as I will also appreciate.
ANALYSIS: Some of my burns concerns in OLED can rest …
I will be honest, in every year I have used the Dell OLED ALIENWARE ALW3423DWF Monitor, I have not found a single problem with the burned, and that includes moments of complacency, leaving static images on the screen. Even so, I am still paranoid, it will eventually happen, and Microsoft’s efforts for a better start menu give me a slight sigh of relief.
Burn-in is one of the biggest negotiation factors for players who contemplate an OLED purchase, and that is why I would go so far as to recommend a monitor led by Mini in some cases. However, Oled Care on Monitor advances continuously, and although Microsoft may have had other intentions with this tester update, it has worked as an advantage.
While Microsoft is doing this with its operating system, I would love to see the same concept applied to games. Early access or multiplayer games often have a compilation number in the corner of the screen, and other OLED users will know how much a nightmare is this, since it is essentially an open invitation to burn.
Anyway, it is a positive Microsoft movement in the same week that announced an improved Xbox application. We will only have to see if it is enough to create a strong competition for steam in terms of usability.
