Hi

From Windows Settings, I did Personalisation > Start > turn off Show recently added apps

But can I remove Recommended from Windows 11?

Hi @NndnG,

As of the current build of Windows 11, it is not possible to remove the "Recommended" section of the Start Menu.

It MUST be a completely BRILLIANT feature in Windows 11. What other reason could there be for it be mandatory?

I mean, there's obviously NO NEED to make it possible to remove because of course it is FANTASTIC. And ANYBODY who dares to express ANY OTHER OPINION is obviously WRONG.

"Not possible to remove" translates as "STFU and do what Microsoft tell you, b****h".

@LeonLaude Has there been any update to this? All I need the start menu to do is utilize the search/autofill feature and to display apps that I have pinned. Is there still no way to remove the Recommended section of the start menu? I disabled the apps from showing up there, but it's wasting landscape in the start menu and it would be nice to have that space available for more pinned apps since I cannot change the width of the start menu.

Thanks.

How soon can this be removed or an option added where this can be removed? It currently takes up half of the start menu.

No, I don't want to scroll down to see my other pinned items.
