Not happy with Windows 11’s new, centered Start menu? That’s okay; you can (sort of) go back to the old menu style.
Start11 – Bring back the old start menu to Windows 11! (Review & Demo)
Windows 11 offers a limited selection of personalization options for the Start menu. Start11, developed by Stardock, is a $5.99 (or $14.99 for multiple devices) utility that can further customize the Start menu and includes presets that mimic the look and feel of older Windows editions.
I bought Start11 and have been using it for the past month. It lacks some features of older Windows editions, but it looks similar and improves on the standard Windows 11 Start menu.
Start11 includes three older Start menu styles. The Windows 7 and Windows 10 styles offer a menu that will be familiar to fans of both operating systems. The third option, Modern, is a bridge between Windows 7 and Windows 10 that combines the layout of a classic Windows Start menu with the aesthetics of Modern Windows.
