Start11 Feature Requests / Use Windows 11 Colored Icons in Windows-10-style start menu

Instead of those mono-colored icons from Windows 10, let us use the new colored icons of Windows 11 here.

If I use "Windows 10 Style" menu, there are icons on the left side, to open certain folders or settings.

These icons are also used in the "Windows 11 style" menu. Which Icons are used here, can be setup in the settings.

 

Because the native Windows 11 menu doesn't have those icons anymore, these icons use the ugly mono colored icons from Windows 10.

But most of those icons correlate to either an app icons have a new Windows 11 icons, that is colored. It would be nice, if we could choose to use the new icons here instead.

 

Here is an example (edited with Paint, so please don't judge me too hard):

(There is no icon for the user folder, but it shouldn't be too hard to come up with a user icons, that fits with the other colored icons.)

 

I think using colored icons here, would give us a more immersive Windows 11 feeling, but still maintaining the usability of the Windows 10 start menu.

This is a good recommendation. More options with app icons would improve the start menu experience.
