Go to the desktop instead of Start when signing in or when all the apps on a screen are closed

This policy setting allows users to go to the desktop instead of the Start screen when they sign in or when all the apps on a screen are closed. This policy setting applies to all versions of Windows and versions of Windows Server with the Desktop Experience installed. If you enable this policy setting users will always go to the desktop when they sign in or when all the apps on a screen are closed. If you disable or don’t configure this policy setting users will go to the Start screen by default when they sign in and the user can configure this setting.
