StartW8 adds the classic Start Menu of Windows 7 to Windows 8.

Ever since Windows 8 came out, lot of utilities and methods have come out that enable you to get the old Start Menu in Windows 8 that everyone misses.

StartW8 is by far the best attempt to bring a Start Menu in Windows 8. The application looks and feels totally like the good old Start Menu which was found in Windows 7 and older versions of Windows.

Almost everyone I have come across prefers the old start menu of Windows 7, instead of Windows 8. But the decision of Microsoft to change the basics of Windows and remove such an essential part of Windows is not liked by most of the new adapters of Windows 8. Therefore there are many third-party apps that are popping up these days to get Start menu back on Windows 8.

StartW8 is another free application that brings the Start Menu in Windows 8. One thing that I like about this application is that once you boot into Windows 8 the application automatically will bring up the Desktop Mode in Windows instead of the Start Screen.
