You could just get rid of it.
Obviously, I am talking about the default start menu. The op is whining about win 10 defaults so seems appropriate to whine about 7 defaults since it always comes down to going back to the 7 menu.

There is some merit because they've somehow managed to make a start menu more laggy than a full-screen menu.With all the options and alternatives, I'm inclined to think anyone seriously complaining about the UI in 10 regarding the start menu just wants to complain about something. You truly can have it any way you want it for minimal cost/effort right now in 2015.
If you can't, then tuff. I can.

I've been testing different websites with Edge, it doesn't even display my webmail properly and there's several sites where it neglects to display everything on the page. lolEdge seems experimental to me and I still prefer the traditional browsers to it so it goes unused.
Well it makes sense to have a default programmes link to start off with. You click it, set your default programmes then get rid of it.
Its not really the same as changing the start menu entirely. More like getting rid of an unwanted icon on the desktop.
but in the end it is just spending the time to customize it how you want.
you mean like removing a Live Tile you don't want...
As I said, default 7 menu sucks. It doesn't make sense to me to have all these links that I never use. I think the default 10 menu is great. Others disagree, but in the end it is just spending the time to customize it how you want.
I don't like the live tiles at all, even for things I use. Too big to be neat, too small to show any meaningful information.you mean like removing a Live Tile you don't want...
You can change those links to shortcuts or flyout menus or get rid of them entirely.As I said, default 7 menu sucks. It doesn't make sense to me to have all these links that I never use.

It's better than the one in 8/8.1 that's for sure. And no matter how much I customise it it's not going to work like the one in 7 does for me.
Still it's not a massive problem as long as the start menu replacements work.
That green highlight is the only annoying part of it (can't seem to change the color).Viva la classic shell. My post win 7 pc's won't be without it until MS makes the 7 interface the standard again.
As do I, but I don't think 10 was meant for anything but a SSD. I had the displeasure of upgrading two laptops circa 2010-2011, one a clean install Turion X2 and one an upgrade on an AMD APU. Both take noticeably longer to bring up the menu than does 8 or even 7. This isn't going to hurt me and my experience, but I am unimpressed with it on older machines.No lag on mine, I don't like lag, so I buy fast computers.
Start10 or whatever there is shouldn't be laggy.
Heck I haven't seen a start menu lag since a hard drive was thrashing
on a PC out of ram.

Might well be, I did an old tk-57 amd acer and it's faster than 7 was, but it has a cheap SSD.As do I, but I don't think 10 was meant for anything but a SSD.
