- Microsoft is testing a new feature for Windows 11 called “Start Menu Companions,” which adds widgets to the Start menu, allowing additional information to be displayed like pace prediction.
- This recursion feels like an evolution of Windows 8's Live Tiles, offering variable spaces that don't change the current layout of the initial menu, but expand their functionality.
- There is discussion about the use of this new life, especially considering the space already taken up by the menu. Get started with devices like this, like notebooks.
- After that, during the testing phase, Microsoft includes an option to disable “Start Menu Companions” in Windows 11 setups, suggesting that the remedy may be optional to launch officially.
A Windows 11 test build reveals that Microsoft is testing widgets (or something else) that complement the Start menu, making it the most important thing. The additional space faces outward or outward and can display various information, as expected.
As for “Start Menu Companions” (also as “Companheiros do Menu Iniciar”), the new path has not yet been publicly documented by Microsoft. A new faith discovered and disclosed by the profile @thebookisclosed no X/TwitterYou are experiencing Windows 11 Canary build 26212 spaces.

Since space also functions as a fluctuating pendulum, it is not displayed on content displayed in the Start menu. No The edgeIt is suspected that the resource is being sent to allow users to use this space to view information from their applications.
This is a logical solution to Live Tiles, which is an animation block that displays various information in Windows 8. These blocks have been toned down for some time, but they have not involved many developers and n have not been treated as essential elements for the users of the operational system.
How do I send a Live Tiles reading?
It's difficult to express an opinion on clear information about Microsoft's plans for Start Menu Companions. But, at first time, the novelty doesn't seem to be very useful.
One possible problem here is that the Windows 11 Start menu takes up low space, especially on laptops. Something that increases space may not be good, therefore.
On the other hand, if the use of this is open to developers, it is clear that what interests them is to use this balão.
It is accurate to also consider the impact that a new feature might not exhaust the system.

Talvez or recurso does not pass the testicle phase. But, if this is the case, users who do not want the idea are not disempowered. As the screenshots show that Start Menu companions can be disabled in Windows 11 setups.
