## Configuration options
|

|
|
||||||
|
There are several options to configure the Windows Start menu.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
If you need to configure a device for a single user, you can pin/unpin applications to Start and rearrange them. Start can be further customized from Settings. Go to **Settings** > **Personalization** > **[Start](ms-settings:personalization-start)**.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
For advanced customizations and when you need to configure multiple devices, you can use one of the following options:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- Configuration Service Provider (CSP): commonly used for devices managed by a Mobile Device Management (MDM) solution, like Microsoft Intune. CSPs can also be configured with [provisioning packages](../provisioning-packages/how-it-pros-can-use-configuration-service-providers.md#csps-in-windows-configuration-designer), which are used at deployment time or for unmanaged devices. To configure Start, use the [Start Policy CSP][WIN-1]
|
||||||
|
- Group policy (GPO): used for devices that are Active Directory joined or Microsoft Entra hybrid joined, and not managed by a device management solution. Group policy can also be used for devices that aren't joined to an Active Directory domain, using the local group policy editor
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
> [!NOTE]
|
||||||
|
> While many of the Start menu policy settings can be configured using both CSP and GPO, there are some settings that are only available using the Start Policy CSP. To learn about the available policy settings to configure the Start menu via CSP and GPO, see [Start menu policy settings](policy-settings.md).
