Toshiba Start by Pokki is a software application designed as a replacement for the traditional Start menu on Windows operating systems. The app is only compatible with Toshiba computers that run Windows OS.

The program features a simple, user-friendly interface that resembles the Windows 7 Start menu. It allows users to access programs, files, and settings quickly and easily.

One of the standout features of Toshiba Start by Pokki is its customizable app drawer. Users can add, remove, and rearrange icons in the drawer to suit their preferences. They can also create custom folders and subfolders to better organize their applications.

In addition to providing quick access to frequently used programs and files, Toshiba Start by Pokki also has a built-in search function. This feature allows users to search for files, settings, and applications directly from the app drawer.

Toshiba Start by Pokki is particularly useful for users who are not fond of the Windows 8 Metro-style Start screen. With this program, Toshiba computer owners can use a more familiar interface that provides easy access to all of their computing needs.
