When opening windows 10 the first thing I see is a "windows 8" start page, or at least that is what it looks like. I hav used winbdows 10 for a whild now but the look has changed. I can`t change to desktop, but if I use alt+tab i can change between different programs running

I think you are on tablet mode.
click the icon right next to the Time > click Tablet mode.
That should bring the Start Menu screen back to normal.

Additionally you might check here
Click the Start Button, Settings, Personalization, Start.
Change the slider to off on Use Start full screen.
