🎮 Bonus: Controller-Friendly Keyboard

If you use a gamepad or handheld PC, the new on-screen keyboard supports full navigation without a mouse or touchscreen. Logging in from your couch just got easier.

Adaptive scaling — large screens get up to 8 columns of pinned apps, small screens get 6, all perfectly responsive.

New toggles — quickly access Phone Link and other utilities straight from Start.

This isn’t just a visual refresh. It’s a real usability upgrade — something Windows hasn’t delivered in a while. Whether you're working, gaming, or multitasking, this new Start menu feels faster, cleaner, and actually enjoyable to use.
