In the shot below, I have created a few tile groups to have an idea of what you can do. For example, here I am dragging the System Settings group closer to the top. Just click the group’s name bar and drag it where you want. Or, you can right-click an app from the list and click Pin to Start, then move the tile where you want it.Īfter creating a group, you can move the whole thing to where you want it on the Start menu. To do that, drag an app from the Apps column on the left side to a tile group on the right. So to get everything in place, you’ll probably need to pin some of your installed apps to the Start menu. Note that not all installed apps will create a tile on the Start menu. To do that, right-click a tile and choose Resize and select from small, medium, large, or wide. This allows you to organize and arrange the tiles in your group to your liking. Keep in mind that you can resize tiles on the Start menu, too. That gives you more room to operate and organize everything. Just click and drag the edges of the menu like you would when resizing the Start menu. Note: An easy way to get started organizing your live tiles is to expand the Start menu, so it’s a bit larger.
Then to give your tile group a name, hover the pointer over the group, and you will see “Name group” pop up.Ĭlick on Name group, and it will open a field so you can type in whatever name you want to give your group of tiles. I dragged everything I wanted into an open area of the Start menu. In the following example, I pinned some system settings to Start and made a group of system settings tiles. Just drag the tiles you want in a group to an open area of the Start menu. I am moving the Microsoft News tile from the “Explore” group to the “Productivity” group in the example below.Ĭreate Your Own Tile Groups on the Start Menuīut let’s take a look at creating a new custom group of tiles. The process is similar to rearranging icons on your smartphone. You can easily add more tiles to those existing groups by dragging them to an existing group. For example, you will see a “Productivity” and “Explore” group of app tiles.

When you first get started with Windows 10, you will see some tiles are already in groups.

Tile Groups on the Start Menu in Windows 10 One of those is arranging them into individual groups. There is a lot of customization you can do with tiles on the Start menu. For instance, 7-zip or other file archiving apps, or if you pin system settings to the Start menu, those tiles won’t be live. Other app tiles and system items are static and just display what they are.
