Locking the tiles in the Start Menu

[Samun-c]

I searched for it but did not find such a topic. Hey Guys.

In Win10 I have a registry-hack, that locks or unlocks those tiles. This is pretty great, when your fumbling fingers move those tiles accidently. But now this doesnt work anymore. It was this reg-entry:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\Explorer]
"LockedStartLayout"=dword:00000001

To clarify what it does: This Win10-Hack removed the ability to add or remove tiles from the start menu, including getting rid of the entry "attach to start" in context menus.

Would love to see this in the future as an option (or if someone wants to tell me how to achieve that)

Live tiles have always been unstable in 22621 onwards. We have no plans of fixing it as Microsoft has removed the Windows 10 start menu in 26xxx builds.

Please correct me if I am wrong, but "Live Tiles" are only those tiles, that have changing elements on them, correct? I am not talking about Live Tiles. Just normal ones. It's just about the question if you can pin them on the start menu for good with a button, so that the start menu cant changed again once it's "perfect".

is this what you're referring to? https://allthings.how/lock-start-menu-layout-in-windows-11/

It sure sounds like it ;) But it's not. I tried them and it did not work. I uploaded my startmenu. What I mean are the single tiles within this start menu. When you detach them, for example the big orange gatey tile, it looks like on the Screenshot. I was able to prevent this in Win10, but in Win11 I lack the possibility.

Its the "startmenu-stil: Windows 10". (Sorry, german version)

This may no longer be supported because windows 11 24h2 removed the windows 10 start menu files, so EP implemented its own windows 10 start menu.

Yeah, I guess so. Anyway, I think it would be a great addon. Dunno how many people think that would be a good idea, but its practical.

Thanks for the answer and I hope you think about it. Do you want me to close this now?

Keep it open as it is a suggestion and the developers here will decide to implement it or not, not me.
