Customise the Start screen
The Start screen is made up of tiles arranged in groups.
A tile is an app or content (such as a website, contact,
or folder) that you can open from the Start screen.
You can customise the Start screen any way you want
it, and put your favourite apps, people, and websites
front and centre. Here are a few options you can try.
Create tiles for your favourite people and
places
If you have a website that you visit every day or people that you chat with all the time, you can create tiles for
them on Start so you can get to them quickly.
When you come across a website, contact, or folder that you want to add to Start, here's how:
To pin a website or contact: Open the webpage in Internet Explorer or a contact in the People app, then
swipe down from the top of the screen, and tap or click Pin to Start.
To pin a folder: Open File Explorer, right click a folder or press and hold until a box appears, then tap or
click Pin to Start.
