According to Windowslatest reports, earlier this year, Microsoft introduced a new icon design for Windows 10, which has a bright and vivid appearance.

As part of the redesign of the new design, Live Tiles will gradually fade out of people’s vision, and the new icon is not in the existing monochrome design. With the Windows 10 version 20H2 update, users will get a more unified “Start” menu experience.
Naijatechnews understands that this update will introduce a more concise, lively and unified design for the “Start” menu. The existing start menu often has large colored squares (live tiles), which is in line with its Fluent design system and The dark or light theme of Windows 10 is inconsistent.
Those “colored squares” in the new version of the Start menu have disappeared, and the new update of Windows provides a visually unified design for the “Start” menu . Microsoft also confirmed that this change will provide better support for system-wide light and dark modes.
The Fluent Design icons for Edge, Movies and TV, and Excel are no longer covered by the main accent color , which makes the icons more concise and more consistent with the theme interface.
The future of Windows 10 start menus and live tiles
Microsoft is exploring ways to match icons with Windows 10 theme preferences. Currently, Microsoft plans to continue to support Live Tiles, but it is gradually fading out of people’s vision.
It is expected that the Windows 10 “Start” menu may soon become like the new Windows 10X “Start” menu. Technically, Microsoft can replace the old “Start” menu with the Windows 10X style through the launcher, but Microsoft is not yet ready to do so. Because Microsoft is still waiting for feedback from Windows 10X early adopters.
