How can I deploy a customized Windows 10 start menu using System Center 2012 R2 SP1 Configuration Manager ?

Here's my XML file I'm using. Feel free to use and modify etc. 

Also, there is a group policy under
Computer Configuration > Policies > administrative templates > Start Menu and Taskbar > Start Layout. Enable the setting, and give it a path (C:\windows\tb_layout\layoutmodification.xml).

Use a group policy preference to place a folder and the file into whatever location for the machines needing the custom layout. 

When group policy runs and the next time those computers log in, they should have the custom start menu layout.

Ok thanks Xerxes, I'll try that out today 😉

Also, forgot to mention that file includes a taskbar layout as well.

I'm attempting to help a cx use this to do a startmenulayout customization during in place upgrade to 1809.  Hopefully this helps out!
