To export the Start layout to an .xml file:
1. While signed in with the same account that you used to customize Start, right-click Start, and select **Windows PowerShell**.
1. On a device running Windows 10, version 1607, 1703, or 1803, at the Windows PowerShell command prompt, enter the following command:
`Export-StartLayout -path <path><file name>.xml`
On a device running Windows 10, version 1809 or higher, run the **Export-StartLayout** with the switch **-UseDesktopApplicationID**. For example:
1. Run `Export-StartLayout` with the switch `-UseDesktopApplicationID`. For example:
```PowerShell
Export-StartLayout -UseDesktopApplicationID -Path layout.xml
