How to resize the Start menu in Windows 10

Are you feeling your Start menu is too big or too small? If so, you can easily resize the Start menu in Windows 10 until it is just right. This can give you more room to pin your favorites or reveal more desktop space. Here is how to do it.

First, launch the Start menu by clicking the Start button on the taskbar or pressing the key Windows.

When the Start menu opens, place the cursor on its edge. The mouse pointer changes into a resizable cursor, which looks like a short line with a double-headed arrow.

To change the height of the Start menu, place the cursor on the top edge of the Start menu, then hold the left mouse button and drag the mouse up or down.

The Start menu will change size as you drag the mouse. When the desired height is reached, release the mouse button and the Start menu will remain the same size.

You can also change the Start menu width the same way: Place the cursor on the right edge to turn it into a resizable cursor and drag the mouse to make the Start menu width bigger or smaller. When resizing horizontally, the Start menu increases in multiples of the tile size.

Or you can adjust both height and width at the same time by clicking on the upper right corner of the Start menu and dragging the mouse in or out diagonally.

If you make the Start menu larger, you'll have more room for live tiles and application shortcuts, web pages, and favorite documents. You can even make the menu cover most screens if you like.

Or if you feel like your Start menu is taking up too much space, you can make it smaller. That way, the Start menu will not cover the entire screen when it appears.

The choice of size completely depends on personal preference. This is just one of many ways to personalize your system and get the most comfortable Windows 10 experience.

By the way, the Start menu is not the only thing you can resize in Windows 10. You can also change the height of the taskbar and customize tiles on the Start menu easily.

Hope you are succesful.
