A start button is a button on electric devices and machines that is used to turn the device on and off.

The START button in a Microsoft Windows operating system is kind of "main menu" for accessing installed programs, settings, search features and much more. By default start button can be found from the bottom left corner of the screen.

I am guessing you mean the start button on a video game controller. Traditionally, on older consoles like game boy original and the sega consoles, pressing the start button was the only way to begin a game. now you can start a game by pressing A or X, depending on which console you have. The start button also pauses the game.

The Start menu is the main gateway to your computer's programs, folders, and settings. It's called a menu because it provides a list of choices, just as a restaurant menu does. And as "Start" implies, it's often the place that you'll go to start or open things.

Use the Start menu to do these common activities:

  • Start programs

  • Open commonly used folders

  • Search for files, folders, and programs

  • Adjust computer settings

  • Get help with the Windows operating system

  • Turn off the computer

  • Log off from Windows or switch to a different user account

A menu you access by clicking on the bottom left orb on your desktop (If you are a windows or Mac user) It is like a library of your computer
