Start Menu

Menu path: Setup > User Interface > Desktop > Start Menu

In this area, you can configure the desktop start menu:

• Start menu type:

  • Auto: A default setting that automatically selects the advanced or legacy type of the start menu depending on the processor. (Default)

  • Advanced: An expanded start menu featuring a search function and a more attractive design. It requires more resources, which is particularly noticeable on slow devices.

  • Legacy: A start menu resembles the one from Windows 95 – a list of available sessions and options.
