Microsoft recently adjusted the Windows Start menu, sparking some user frustration.
Here’s what happened: To make the Start menu more streamlined, Microsoft grouped related settings, but in doing so, they moved the sign-out option under a three-dot menu. This change caused confusion for users trying to log out.
Fortunately, Microsoft has responded to feedback and is testing an update that returns the sign-out button to its original location.
This is particularly helpful for teams sharing a computer with multiple profiles, making it easier to switch between accounts.
These adjustments are part of a wider update to Windows 11, which is currently in testing. Alongside the Start menu changes, the update will introduce features like media controls on the lock screen for audio and video playback, as well as the ability to share files directly from search results.
These small updates highlight how even minor improvements can positively impact your team's productivity.
