Shout out to StartAllBack, the replacement Start menu. It started back when Microsoft had abandoned the Start menu altogether. These days Windows 11 Start is more or less OK but shoving ads into it definitely is user hostile.

$5 per machine gets you a nice third party Start menu. It's more flexible too; these days I mostly use it because it lets you move the taskbar to the left edge where it belongs on an ultrawidescreen monitor.
