[About trying to customize the Windows 10 Start menu:]

  I can't really give any suggestions on this as I never tried to
customize the Windows 10 (or 8.1 or 11) Start menu. But given that you
like the Windows 7 Start menu, why don't you just install Open-Shell
Menu [1] and get what's essentially a Windows 7 like Start menu? (One of
the 'Start Menu Style's is 'Windows 7 style'. I use 'Classic with two
columns', because it's more like Vista (I never had 7).)

  I've used (Classic Start Menu and) Open-Shell Menu on Windows 8.1, 10
and 11, because none of them had/have a 'real' Windows Start Menu.

  You can have *both* the native Start menu *and* Open-Shell Menu. You
can invoke the native Start menu from the Open-Shell Menu. And you can
hide Open-Shell Menu.

  "Open-Shell Menu, don't leave home without it!"

N.B. The GitHub page does not have any screenshots, but on the old
Classic Shell page you can get some idea of what it looks like
(<http://www.classicshell.net/>).
