Hello all,newbie here

 

I have just purchased a surface 8.0 rt  which i have upgraded to 8.1 rt.

I get msg saying that my tablet cannot run this app when i try to add Start 8

Can anyone tell me if there is a way to get my surface 8.1 rt to add and use a start menu?

Thanks in advance for all help given

Windows RT tablets are unable to run third party desktop applications.  It can only run fullscreen applications you can download directly from the Microsoft Store app.

There is no alternative start menu option for them I am afraid.
