- badsectoracula 5y agoWell, since Vista it doesn't stay "Start" anywhere anymore :-P I wonder why is it even called the "start menu" nowadays instead of "window menu" or something like that (considering the icon). (though even that might not always work considering the stylization... my aunt uses some slang that basically translates to "little boxes", which took me a LONG time to understand what she was talking about when i was trying to help with her Win10 laptop through phone :-P)
- datalus 5y agoYou start/launch applications from the menu? That's my guess.
- blacksmith_tb 5y agoAnd you also shut down from it... I suppose calling it the Stop Menu didn't seem like a good idea, though. Making it the Windows logo does make it more similar to macOS and its Apple Menu (which does less and less over time, the opposite of Windows, ironically). I vaguely remember Gnome used the G 'foot' symbol for its main menu, though it doesn't scale down very well, so giving up on that was probably wise. For all three I tend to just to invoke their launcher with the meta key (meta-space for Spotlight on the Mac, though I like Albert personally) and type what I want instead of digging around in the menu, these days.
