over time the windows 10 menu has grown on me and I like how I can pin my stuff to the right using tags. but I went back to windows 7 because I cannot stand the updates auto downloading and installing whenever they want on windows 10. while playing a game windows 10 restarts on me :x i cannot tolerate this. i installed classic shell on windows 7 but it is the same as the windows 7 menu which now feels a bit outdated. i miss ability to pin tiles to the the right under tags. can you add it to classic menu? i understand live tiles may not be possible but pinning on the right would be nice

The idea is good however the Classic menu shows submenus to the right and the left column also shows jumplists to the right so if a separate area for pinning is added, it will have to be added to the left of everything. And if the items pinned on the left also have jumplists as submenus, they will have overlap the menu on the right.

well I am back on windows 10 giving it another try with anniversary update. I do not understand the technical reasons why you cannot add some bigger space to pin apps. i am sure there is plenty of space to the right. on my tablet also I pin the apps that I use the most to the opening screen
