I created the Quick Start app and ran it in Windows 8.1 Professional (64-bit) with "electron-prebuilt": "^0.30.4".

Here are some ways in which using Electron menus from the keyboard don't work like Windows native menus:

1. Pressing Alt by itself should select the first menu from the menu bar. (Electron just flashes the accelerator keys at you.)
2. Similarly, pressing and releasing Alt then pressing a shortcut key should bring that menu up (Electron requires you to hold Alt while pressing the shortcut key, per item # 1 ).
3. When you use the keyboard to choose a menu, the first item in the menu should be pre-selected. (Electron holds the menu open, but no item is selected.)
4. When you have a menu selected, pressing ← or → should take you to the first item in the menu to the left/right, respectively. (Electron ignores the left and right arrow keys.)
5. When you have a menu selected, pressing ↑ should highlight the last item in the menu. (Electron highlights the first.)
