Released last week, the final version Windows 8 finally divided the population of the planet Earth into two warring parties - the "puskostradaltsy" and "metrolyubiteli". The first can never heal the pain of losing a favorite button, the second quite happily engaged in development of a new interface system, and no problems were experienced.
We want to make life easier for little fans of the Start button, and offer several ways to substitution. Of the dozens of similar utilities, we have selected only the best. Yes, this is not a complete reincarnation of the sacred keys, but still ...
Win8StartButton brings us the best of the old and new versions of the system. He adds the Start button on the taskbar of your system, but its appearance and basic functions are very similar to the new Start screen of Windows 8. When you click on a menu appears in which only need to enter a few letters of the name of the item you want to immediately get results. This program can be recommended to all users who want to have the main menu and at the same time unable to give up the capabilities of the new system.
Start8 from Stardock is the "best alternative to the Start menu for Windows 8".

Classic Shell was originally set up with the aim of recreating a completely canonical and immaculate Windows XP style for those users who have embraced the new Windows Vista and Windows 7 the menu as sedition (yes, it was after all that!). Since then, the priorities have changed and now Classic Shell helps to build a piece of sevens or Vista to Windows 8.
The program has support for skins and a very large number of settings, with which you can change the appearance and behavior of the system's main menu. In addition, the program has many additional features to improve the Windows Explorer, Internet Explorer and so on, which, however, goes far beyond the scope of this article.
