That's pretty much default, but for a true out of box default, the only way I know of is to refresh or reset Windows.

Does it reset it back to the Windows 8.1 factory settings when I first installed Windows 8.1?

Does it reset the Windows 8.1 start menu back to the way when I first installed Windows 8.1?

Yes, minus the default apps that you didn't have pinned when reset.

It automatically unpins all non-default pinned items from your Start screen leaving only any pinned default Store apps. If you unpinned any default Store apps, they will not be added back. If you installed any other Store apps (non-default), then they will be unpinned.

If you like, you could use this below to create a backup of your Start screen after a clean install to have it handy for all default apps.
