Hi, Thanks for your reply, unfortunately this is not what I am asking. The Start Menu works, I am asking is there a way to edit the Right-Click Start Menu on Windows 10.

I have now found a way to add or delete icons using WinXMenuEditor.

AFAIK, there is no such way that you assign any other operation to Start Button. The method mentioned in my previous reply will lock Start Button and prevent it from working, I thought you're looking for this.

Hi Si,

I think this article can give you a hint, even though it is aimed at Windows 8, still works on Windows 10. Win+X menu is equal to right-click start button menu.
