Microsoft has ditched live titles for good and adopted a 6×3 grid panel that shows pinned apps and Recommendations which includes documents, files, and apps that you have opened and installed recently. Learn, How to Remove Recommended items from Windows 11 Start Menu, if you want.

    Lots of users were requesting Microsoft to provide more options to customize the Start menu elements. Taking these suggestions seriously, the company decided to introduce a couple of options using which users can customize the Start menu in Windows 11.

    With these Customization options, it is now possible for users to select whether they want to add a row for apps and recommended items. The purpose is to offer users the ability to optimize more space available on the Start menu.

    Start menu settings

    On the Start menu settings page, you will find a new section called Layout. Under which you will find three Start menu layouts which include:

    • More Pins – Add extra row to show more apps
    • Default – Keep it default
    • More Recommendation – Add extra row to show more recommedation items

    Show More apps on Windows 11 Start menu

    With default settings, the Start menu only displays three rows for pinned apps. In case, you’re the one who wants to pin or show more apps in the Start menu of Windows 11, then you can go for the More Pins layout.
