I just installed Start11 RC1.  I was wondering what trickery you were using to show the Windows 10 Start Menu on Windows 11.  Now, I see that you just basically reimplemented it from scratch.  Ha!

I do like it, and I like that you've added some additional options (i.e. configuring the shortcuts that appear on the left side) but I spotted one other thing that is missing.  In the "normal" Windows 10 Start menu, you can drag one tile on top of another and it will create a subgroup or subfolder.  It doesn't look like this is an option in the current Start11 implementation.

Keep up to the good work.
