Only thing I use Start button for is to turn off the PC. The search is unusable and all shortcuts are in my task bar anyways.

Did you put the application in the start menu during install?

Linux-onlyists have a tendency to not learn how anything works and then blame the "bad workflow" of the OS, so it's kind of difficult to just assume you didn't make a mistake.

yeah, I use my start button all the time to quickly open stuff. Hit start, start typing the program name, hit enter because it shows up immediately as a suggestion. super quick with no need to touch the mouse
