Start10: Tiles without text ?

Feature suggestion

from WinCustomize Forums

Hi,

it would e a nice feature to be able to hide the icon-text when in tile mode in Win7 or Modern Startmenu. That way Start 10 should also resize the menu.

Hi c242,

Try the great freeware  TileIconifier :)

My Problem is, that in the real Win 10 Startmenu the Tileconifier modded icons on the tiles disappear any other restart leaving the shortcut blank.

So I got back to Start 10. I really don't like the still inconsistent mess Microsoft did with tiles and icons. An unmodified native win 10 startmenu looks like crap with mixed tiles and old icons.

I would prefer this just without text and less spacing:

I had the same problem c242, but there is a very easy fix.

The problem is the windows explorer and not the TileIconifier.  Just hit control-shift-esc, opens the Task Manager, (having at least one explorer window open), select "Windows Explorer" and then click on the button, in the bottom right area, that says " "Restart" and voila in one second Start Menu Tiles are again perfect! :)

I don't want to have to restart Explorer to make it work again...
