TL;DR Summary

Microsoft is considering placing ads for apps from the Microsoft Store in the recommended section of the Windows 11 Start menu, currently limited to US-based Windows Insiders in the Beta Channel, with the option to disable them in Settings. This move follows previous ad experiments in Windows 10 and may not see wider rollout, but users should be aware of the potential for ads in the Start menu.
