For some reason the escape key doesn't close the windows 10 start menu when its set to 'full-screen'
This leaves 2 other viable options pressing/clicking the windows key/icon (which is slightly 'annoying' because this also opens classic shell)
and pressing win+D

I would love an option that reads [esc] and sends [win]+[D] but only when on the start screen (in fullscreen)
And possibly an adjustment, or setting where simply hitting the windows key doesn't pull up classic shell, IF the windows start menu is active

On my Windows 10, if tablet mode is on, then Esc doesn't close the fullscreen Windows 10 Start menu/screen. But if I turn off tablet mode and go to Settings -> Personalization -> Start and only check the option "Use Start full screen", then Esc closes it.

How strange..
After a system restart, it seems to be working fine for me (also tablet mode is/has always been disabled(grayed out))
Since escape key works, the windows key adjustment is unnecessarily (though it might still be worth including as an option)
