      Sorry, it’s Quicklaunch.

      I have my most used applications there so I never have to hit the start button.

        Doesn’t pinned apps on the taskbar work for that same use case? I’ve just used that instead since Windows 7

          Similarly but not quite. I also have stuff pinned, but the quick launch also allows you to have a menu that you can open with a list of apps too. The icons are also much closer together, so in the space of 5 pinned icons, I can have 11 quick launch icons.
