Although Windows 11 hit the market in 2022, after much hype from Microsoft And although there is already talk of a future Windows 12, the market share of 11 is small: it is 26.5% of computers compared to almost 70% that Windows 10 maintains.
Over time and since its launch, Windows 11 has been continuously improving certain design aspects like the more than 100 new features presented in September 2023. In addition, throughout this time, the leadership of the operating system also changed.
A few months ago, the person responsible for Windows 11 and Surface Panos Panay left the company after 20 years of service. His replacement is Yusuf Mehdi, who until then was head of marketing. In his team there is also Mikhail Parakhin who leads the so-called team Windows and Web experiences.

“We have to make it great again”
Parakhin has talked about X in his profile with users of the Microsoft operating system about the criticisms they have. There were people who complained about the new design of the Windows 11 Start menu, which works slightly different than Windows 10. A user tells him:
Please just fix the Start menu so that I can scroll through all the apps without extra clicking on “all apps”.
And the manager's response is clear: “So true! It bothers me a lot too. Putting pressure on the team: we need to make the Start menu great again“.
Mikhail Parakhin, who previously led Microsoft's web experiences team, is not the first time he has openly talked about things he doesn't like and wants to improve about products or services. In March 2023, on Bing Chat, he said that the company had the intention to improve the moderation system.
What we don't have are details of how you want to fix that start menu. But the user's request talks about us being able to move from top to bottom through all the applications.
