Microsoft Confirms That The Desktop Start Screen Tile Is No Longer The Default In Windows RT 8.1

2013-10-23_10h29_49Microsoft today confirmed with TechCrunch that it has made the desktop Start Screen tile non-default in Windows RT 8.1. You can return the tile to the Start Screen in any size if you wish. It also exists in the "all app view" that is new to Windows 8.1, if you don't want it on your Start Screen at all.Yesterday I noted that the change greatly deemphasizes the desktopin Windows RT. This matters, as it indicates that Microsoft may be moving to an all Modern Metro future for Windows RT. Currently, the only applications you can run in desktop mode in Windows RT (any version) are Office and Internet Explorer.
