Sometimes I can't think of the name of an app I use infrequently and I scan the start menu looking for a name that jogs my memory.

So will I now have to Google what the app does in order to find the name so I can start the program?

Or you're on someone elses machine and you want to see what apps are installed?

If you activate the Search Charm from the new Start page you are presented with an alphabetical listing of all installed application (Metro and Desktop).
