Original start menu restored


According to Google AI (unreliable I know) the reverting of the start menu is related to Microsoft server level A/B testing. With Microsoft enabling features for some users and disabling them for others - at server level - with server side configuration assigned to a particular machine toggled back.

If that is true then Microsoft must definitely have read my post on here and my google searches!

    Still assembled, still runs. Haven't turned it on for 15 years?
Google AI is right its A/B testing and gradual rollout. My widgets panel reverted back to the old style and I have the new start menu. It's just Microsoft testing stuff and rolling it out slowly. It is really annoying though I wish they would just stop with gradual rollouts for non insider builds. If they need QA that badly just rehire the department they fired lol.
