Hi All, I want to change the size of the right hand menu (the menu with documents, computer, etc) so that the text is larger. I have changed the left hand size of the text by increasing the 'Large Icon Size' from 32px to 40px, and I know how to change the width of the menu. I'd just like to change t...

I've just worked out what it is! The issue is if you put the mouse right in the bottom left corner of the start button - so you can't even see it basically. So just move your mouse right into the bottom left corner as much as possible. When the mouse is there, it will open to the metro screen when a...

Thanks for the help! Yes latest version of Modern Mix, I'm using the right hand one, but it did the same when choosing the middle one. I've unchecked them all on that page. I tried the 2 column and that didn't work. I then tried the 'replace the start button' - and bingo it worked!! So now I just ne...

Hi, I probably should of mentioned that I am running ModernMix, which basically means the Apps open in a window rather than the fullscreen - but I don't think this would change anything. So I'll explain what I am doing : I'm on the desktop 1) Click Start, All Programs, Apps - then choose an app (For...

I should point out something that I found too : It work the first time you click the Start Button, but not if you click back on the app and click the start button again. So for example : 1) Open App 2) Click Start Button - Classic Shell Menu Opens 3) Click back on App 4) Click on Start Button - Goes...

When you have a App open and then left click on the Windows Icon (Start Button) it takes you to the Metro Start Screen, rather than the Classic Shell Start Menu - Is there a way to stop this? So when you have a App open it will just open the Classic Shell Start Menu, it only seems to do this when a ...
