# Customize and export the Start layout
# Customize the Start layout
Implementing a customized Start layout across your organization's devices empowers administrators with direct control over the Start menu configuration. With this capability you can specify a tailored set of pinned applications, arranged according to preference. Utilize this feature to strategically pin desired apps, eliminate default pins, and organize the application display to align with operational requirements.
This article describes how to customize the Start layout, export its configuration, and deploy the customization to other devices.
> [!NOTE]
> If you are looking for OEM information, see the article [Customize the Start layout](/windows-hardware/customize/desktop/customize-the-windows-11-start-menu).
For example, you can override the default set of apps with your own a set of pinned apps, and in the order you choose. As an administrator, use this feature to pin apps, remove default pinned apps, order the apps, and more.
To add apps you want pinned to the Start menu, you use a JSON file. In previous Windows versions, IT administrators used an XML file to customize the Start menu. The XML file isn't available on Windows 11 and later ***unless*** [you're an OEM](/windows-hardware/customize/desktop/customize-the-windows-11-start-menu).
When you customize the Start layout, you overwrite the entire full layout. Users can pin and unpin apps, and uninstall apps from Start. When a user signs in or Explorer restarts, Windows reapplies the MDM policy. This action restores the specified layout and doesn't retain any user changes.
## Customization process
To customize the Windows Start menu and deploy its configuration to other devices, you can follow these steps:

- In Windows Configuration Designer, you use the **Policies/Start/StartLayout** setting to provide the contents of the .xml file that defines the Start and taskbar layout.
## Prepare the Start layout XML file
### Prepare the Start layout XML file
The **Export-StartLayout** cmdlet produces an XML file. Because Windows Configuration Designer produces a customizations.xml file that contains the configuration settings, adding the Start layout section to the customizations.xml file directly would result in an XML file embedded in an XML file. Before you add the Start layout section to the customizations.xml file, you must replace the markup characters in your layout.xml with escape characters.

# Supported configuration service provider (CSP) policies for Windows 11 taskbar
The Windows OS exposes CSPs that are used by MDM providers, like [Microsoft Intune](/mem/intune/fundamentals/what-is-intune). In an MDM policy, these CSPs are settings that you configure. When the policy is ready, you deploy the policy to your devices. This article lists the CSPs that are available to customize the Taskbar for Windows 11 devices.
