Editor's review:

If you are melancholic or just don't like the Modern UI of Windows 8, then StartW8 is the perfect solution for you. It offers the possibility of using the traditional Start menu on your Windows 8 operating system.

What we like:

- It reinstates the Start menu on Windows 8 operating system, including the famous "All Programs";
- It allows you to Log On, Log Off, Lock and Turn Off buttons;
- It offers access to the entire repository or the search bar to help user navigate the research and in the operating system menu;
- It it quick and easy to use;
- It is all user configurable;
- It offers the option to ignore the Hot corner.
Our suggestion:

We suggest to the developer to add to the application the possibility to:
- add our own shortcuts to the Start Menu;
- keep the highlight option for the New Installed Applications;
- offer the automatic updates option to find out about the availability of a new version;
- work faster as it is a little slower comparing to other similar applications.
