Some users find it difficult to use Windows 8 without start menu. Fortunately Stardock has released a small application called "Start8"

Features:

- Adds a “Start” menu to the Windows 8 taskbar
- Enables quick access and searching of your installed applications
- Adds Run... option via right-click menu
- Adds Shutdown... option via right-click menu
- Choose a custom Start button image

Download: Start8 for Windows® 8 - Bringing back the Windows Start menu

P.S. You need to give your email address in order to download the app

Jack,
Have you personally tried that program?

I've tried two such programs and they messed up some things in win-8 which caused me to have to re-install Win-8.
I'm reluctant to go there again.

I have Vista start menu on my desktop, but don't use it too much. It is identical to Start Menu 7 (Joe) but without the start globe, which I see no need for. Only fault I found with either is that they are directly linked to the Metro menu and you must be very aware if you start moving the menu items around or deleting them - the changes are immediately reflected in the Metro menu and, in many cases irrecoverable.
