Can't seem to resize start menu in build 9926, I don;t get the double
ended arrow.
Some suggest right click menu when open then go start menu tab and
reset to defaults, No go, don't get nothing when I right click.
Any suggestions.

Regards, Rene

When you click the Start button, look in the upper right corner for a
4-arrow icon, next to the power button. That will make the Start menu
full
screen. There's nothing in between that I have found. Once you click
on an
app, the menu goes away as usual.



No, that's not it, The resize feature that i am looking for actually
lowers or raises the top edge of the start menu with a double headed
move arrow.
It worked in an earlier build because I tried it before, but not in this
build.

Regards, Rene

The older builds allowed a flexible resize of the menu. The new 9926
build
is fullscreen or not fullscreen. A or B
not in between.

---I had build 9879 with normal start menu. I mean when I did unpin all
tiles from start menu, it resized to normal size. I've done the same thing
in build 9926 and now start menu has a big empty area. I hope they'll fix
that in next release.

Worked for me also. In fact, it restored my start menu and small tiles to
the way they were in the previous build. "All apps" is still alphabetized,
but the letter headings are gone (which seemed silly to me, since I can
already tell which apps begin with "A" without an "A" header). The programs
I had in All Apps are back with the folders at the bottom, as it should be
IMHO.

Kudos to Joel for posting this!

Double Kudos. And how the hell do people find these tweaks?
Now if there was a fix to reverse order that menu. I kinda like the apps at the bottom since I don't really use apps much.
