Windows XP - Revive the classic Start menu

January 24, 2013
Updated: December 6, 2021
Quick overview:

Neben den vielen Designänderungen, die Windows XP zu bieten hat, offeriert sich dem User auch ein völlig umgestaltetes Startmenü. Zuletzt verwendete Programme werden in der linken Spalte untergeordnet, standardmäßige Windows Ordner wie z.B. Eigene Dateien oder Systemsteuerung findet man rechts.

Falls ihnen dieses neue Startmenü doch nicht zusagt, können sie gerne Back to the Win95/NT/98/ME/2K Roots gehen.

1. Klicken sie mit der rechten Maustaste auf einen freien Bereich der Taskleiste. Aus dem aufklappenden Menü wählen sie nun Eigenschaften.

2. Wählen sie nun das Register Startmenü, markieren sie die Option Klassisches Startmenü und klicken sie auf Ok.

Wenn sie ab sofort auf Start klicken erscheint das gute alte Startmenü.

Founded Windows Tweaks as a teenager in 2001, his helpful PC tricks made it Germany's most visited Windows site (at the time Sandro looked like this). He then went on to write for international publications such as PC-Praxis, Computerbild, PCWorld in the USA, IMTEST.de and Hifi.de. Sandro's main job is as Global Product Marketing Lead and Consultant for various global tech companies, including Microsoft, AVG, Avast, Nero, TeamViewer, Swiss IT Security Group and now currently in the fintech sector for Gendigital. But he can't get rid of his passion and shares his tweaks here again. Privately, he enjoys traveling the world and loves Asia, especially Japan, Singapore and Korea, but also natural places like Iceland and the Nordics. You can reach Sandro via e-mail.
