Microsoft is beta testing an improved Start Menu in Windows 10, which features a more streamlined design that better fits with the rest of the operating system.
Available in the latest beta release from the Windows Insider Dev channel, Microsoft is experimenting with changing the way that apps and Live Tiles look in the Start Menu. The company says the new Start Menu should “create a beautiful stage for your apps.”
This new design comes by way of removing the solid-color backplates behind the logos in the app list of the Start Menu. Things are now instead partially transparent, creating a more clean look that matches Microsoft’s new iconography in Windows 10.
