you can write underlined function keys before application names like numbers. it is single keystroke which is easier for me than alt combination
it will give all applications a shortcut to open

Idea of underlined numbers for recently launched programs is nice but it does not work when search box is blinking. I would like function keys on keyboard F1-F12 to open recently launched programs. It has benefit that search box can have blinking cursor yet I go Win, F6 to launch sixth program. Also 12 keys gives 2 more extra programs support. Please consider as substitute or addition to 0-9. I enable full 20 recently launched programs. Top 10 can have F1-10 and bottom 10 can have 0-9. Function keys should work only when main menu open. Thank you. |

You can use Alt+1, ... to activate the digits even when the search box is selected. |

I know but Alt-1, 2 is not as simple as F1, F2 as it is two key combination. I enable all 20 recently launched programs so for top 10 I would like F1, F2..F10 and bottom 10 Alt-1, 2..Alt-10. If less than 10 programs enabled it can be simple F1, F2. |

Any update on this being added? when I set start menu to show numbers alt works only for ten programs but I cannot open other applications wihout numbers using keyboard shortcut. I would like F1 to F12 to open other applications |

This is a good idea but note that only 20 programs can be shown on the MFU list so if F1 to F12 are used, then only Alt 0 to 7 or Alt 1 to 8 can be used. Or Alt 0 to 9 and F1 to F10. |

No, this is not a planned feature. For one, it is not standard, and for two, it is not discoverable. |
