Windows 8 Start Menu
Start is back!
Congratulations! You've just found the best way to relieve your (and your users) Windows 8 pain.
Think of it as a transition path which Microsoft should have made for Windows 8.
StartIsBack returns Windows 8 a real fully featured start menu and start button, behaving exactly like the ones in Windows 7.
StartIsBack radically improves desktop usability and makes new Start screen clutter-free.
StartIsBack is fully native lightweight zero-privileges program, cheap and fair, fast, stable and secure.
- Boot to desktopYour session would start with the desktop. Always. Unlike other solutions, StartIsBack goes directly to desktop every time without flashing Start Screen even for a millisecond.
- Original fully-featured Windows 7 start menuStartIsBack restores original Windows 7 start menu with all its features: search, drag&drop, pinned and recently used apps, fully customizable settings. Start button and Start menu look and behave exactly as they used to in Windows 7.
- Desktop and Modern interfaces are clearly separatedStartIsBack is the only tool which is able to provide consistency in Windows 8 by separating desktop and modern programs. Real work is done on desktop while new Start screen turns into launcher for modern apps only.
- Make Start screen clutter-freeWindows 8 forces you to organize new Start screen which can quickly become a long list of mess with automatically pinned programs. This is no longer the case with StartIsBack. If you turn Start screen into Apps screen, you won't have the pain to manage two Start places.
- Totally nativeStartIsBack does not run any additional services or programs. It integrates into your computer smoothly. It does not require any other tools or frameworks to install and can be installed without administrative privileges. Start menu is fully localized into your language with same metrics and names Windows 7 had.
- Rich customization and configurationStartIsBack allows you to configure many aspects of appearance and behavior of Start menu and Modern UI elements. This is done in most reliable way, within attractive and easy configuration UI.

How awesome is that?
Toolbox for Windows 8 puts you in control of Modern UI
Toolbox for Windows 8 puts you in control of Modern UI:
The Windows 8 Modern UI looks great at first, but start using it and you’ll soon notice a problem. No matter how large your display, there’s no longer any way to view and access more than two apps at any one time. The old ability to organize windows more or less as you like simply no longer applies in the app world.
If this feels like a step backwards to you, though, help is at hand in the shape of Toolbox for Windows 8, an interesting free app that provides 9 tools of its own, and allows you to arrange and use up to 6 of them on the screen at any one time.
The browser includes a browser, Facebook client and weather app. A Notifier tool warns you of upcoming events; Doodle is a very simple drawing app; there’s a voice notes applet and unit conversion tool, and you get a clock and calculator thrown in for good measure.
Some of these apps are, well, limited. To put it politely. But the real point here isn’t as much as the applications themselves, as the ability to have up to six of these running and displayed on the screen at any one time, arranged more or less as you like. And Toolbox can even save these layouts (which it calls “toolsets”) for easy reloading later.
The program comes with some sample layouts to help you get started. So loading “Brainstorming”, for instance, will launch and display the browser, voice notes and Doodle apps, ready for a research session. While “Meeting” runs and displays the Clock, Calculator, Doodle, Notifier, and Voice Notes apps, so again they’re all accessible on the same screen.
You’re not restricted to running only one instance of an app, though. The “World Travel” toolset, for example, opens three copies each of the Clock and Weather apps, each pair set to a different city (Seattle, Brooklyn and Berlin). While “In the News” opens four browser windows, each with their own custom news search (“US News”, “Local news” and so on).
And of course you’re free to customize every detail of these: the apps, their parameters (browser starting page, weather city and so on), the layouts themselves, and more.
There are also a few issues here. Some of the apps are a little too basic, and it really needs a text editor. Toolbox for Windows 8 does offer considerably more flexibility in your app layout than Microsoft have so far managed, though, and that alone will make it an essential download for many.

The Adobe Flash Player
The Adobe Flash Player is software for viewing multimedia, Rich Internet Applications, and streaming video and audio, on a computer web browser or on supported mobile devices. Flash Player runs SWF files that can be created by the Adobe Flash authoring tool, by Adobe Flex or by a number of other Macromedia and third party tools. Flash Player was created by Macromedia and now developed and distributed by Adobe Systems after its acquisition.
Flash Player supports vector and raster graphics, 3D graphics, an embedded scripting language called ActionScript, and streaming of video and audio. ActionScript is based on ECMAScript, and supports object-oriented code, and may be compared to JavaScript. Flash Player has a wide user base, with over 90% penetration on internet connected personal computers, and is a common format for games, animations, and GUIs embedded into web pages.
Flash Player is freely available as a plugin for recent versions of web browsers (such as Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox, Opera, and Safari) on selected platforms. Google Chrome integrated the player into the distribution. Each version of the plugin is backwards-compatible.
