I like many others I'm sure got Windows 8 and are doing everything we can to give the middle finger to the new start system
So if your like me and absolutely hate it i suggest you drop 5 dollars on Start8 by Stardock, Its unbeatable
My Desktop
Start8
Its loaded with features to disable if you hate some of the corner stuff in Windows 8. Plus you get your start menu back. With the option of the new layout or the old. Why couldn't MS come up with something
that simple... The world may never know. But definately makes the OS functional. I approve this program and hope many others give it a chance with its 30 day trial.

8 will go down like "New Coke" or "Vista" just plain stupid move MS.
Almost as backward as "Ubuntu Unity". Start was the best advantage Win had over Mac.

Yeah, MS is following their pattern to the letter. Every other OS is fail. After Win7 comes a fail just as the previous Vista. Waiting for Win9 or whatever it's gonna be called.

And that real windows explorer mod for win8 might work for a little while. But when they update it to try and patch that mod Start8 is the only option left for a little while possibly. They did that shell patch with XP SP2 if you remember and people had to hack around it. But, you have Classic Shell which is free, and ViStart but none of them have the real start menu layout or right click functionality that works right.

I btw think the seamless trans from mobile to desktop is a decent enough thought, but why degrade the dedktop- upgrade the mobile instead - stupid!

No need for apps here - just switch to classic modes -

That is for Vista to have the XP or earlier theme...
