Microsoft is exploring the possibility of placing app ads in the Windows 11 Start menu.in one articleBlog article, Microsoft announced that they plan to place apps that can be found in the Microsoft Store in the “Suggestions” section below the start menu, essentially advertising these apps. If you have upgraded from Windows 10, this should be familiar to you – Windows 10 already has advertisements built into the start menu, which also “recommends” you to download apps. Currently, Microsoft only displays these ads in the version for Windows Insider Beta channel users in the United States, so if you are not a beta tester, or your computer is managed by a corporate organization, you should not see it yet. of these advertisements.

Like other Microsoft experiments in Insider beta, it is possible that these ads will not be widely promoted, but after all, Microsoft has already added similar ads to the start menu, so the possibility of finally adding them is quite high. big. If you find ads appearing and don’t want to see them, you can go to “Settings > Personalization > Start” and find and turn off “Show tips, suggestions for new apps, etc.” (or something like this). .

It’s no longer news that Microsoft vigorously promotes its own services throughout Windows (especially Edge and Copilot-related services), but placing ads for third-party products is still relatively rare. I can only hope that Microsoft remembers that we all spent a lot of money to buy Windows, and don’t keep filling us with ads like free software.
