In the past, we’ve covered couple of programs to get back Windows 7 like old start menu in Windows 8. Here is another similar new program ‘StartMenu8’ released by IObit that brings back the old start menu and start button to Windows 8. It’s totally free, offers a variety of customization options and apparently is the best free start menu replacement for Windows 8. The tool is really handy for users accustomed to working with old start menu and don’t find the new Metro start screen comfortable to use.

StartMenu8 is specially designed for Windows 8 that provides a quick and efficient way to get back the traditional Windows Start Menu and Start button in Windows 8. It integrates perfectly, offers faster access to programs and files, seamless search and power options are included too. StartMenu8 also offers four easy-to-use and fully configurable menus, thus allowing users the ability to customize the menu as desired.

It has the option to Skip Metro screen which automatically skips the Metro UI and boots Windows 8 directly into desktop interface. There are options to disable certain Metro features like Windows 8 Hot Corners, the Metro Sidebar and hot keys. One can quickly switch to Modern start screen using the hotkey (Alt + X) or a custom defined shortcut.

    This is fine but I think that ClassicShell beats the IOBit product by a mile.
    It’s also been around a lot longer and has more features than Start Menu8.

    Well Microsoft I think you just might have sold more copies had you included something like this. Best include this in you first SP1 for Windows 8 if Possible.
