The Start Menu has been a problem for Microsoft on the Windows Platform since the inception of Windows 8.0. The company can't seem to find a system that users truly love, but improvements and refinements have made the Windows 10 Start Menu arguably the best since Windows 7.

For HoloLens, the company will adopt the Windows 10 Start Menu (although in Hologram form), with a list of apps showing what is installed for use on the headset. Gesturing with your hand will navigate around the menu, which the excellent air tap system will allow users to select specific apps and features.

While tapping the air in a single gesture can select apps, Microsoft is also reportedly developing a Bluetooth clicker, featuring a single button for selecting apps. The micro USB chargeable device has not been announced by Microsoft just yet, but a leaked image (above) shows the clicker and what is will look like.
