Delete the program list on the left

[damians]

Hi all, how do I remove the program list on the left? the first column indicated by the arrow. I want the visible program list to be only on the right side

Not on a Win11 machine at the moment but I think that's the "most recent used" list.  You'd have to turn off the "most recent used" tracking.  Unsure where that is in Win11.

Thanks, so is this a setting I need to change in windows options? Not in startallback settings?

Not sure on that (this isn't the StartAllBack thread and I do not use StartAllBack/StartIsBack (I use Classic Shell on Win10).

In Win10, the list you are pointing to is one of these settings (a Windows setting, not a Start(Is|All)Back/ClassicShell setting).

But how StartAllBack "reacts" when that list is empty/disabled is unknown to me.

Install Open-Shell and, with some tweaking via Open-Shell and other work, get a proper Start Menu again. Something like this:

Yep, that's what I use also (I referred to it as "Classic Shell" previously, but it is indeed called "Open-Shell").

But that is now "off-topic".  The original post was not in the StartIsBack section whereas it is now.

I prefer startallback to openshell because startallback applies a darker theme than the default Windows one.
