Start Menu 8 is a small application designed for the latest Windows operating system, which lacks a proper Start menu, from which the user can navigate to different applications installed on the computer. The new design of the Windows installment has removed the Start menu that was popular among users and this small tool will bring it back for everyone that needs it. The tool is usable for free and even if it does not come from a popular developer, it attracts more attention daily, thus it receives quality support and constant updates regarding the compatibility and not only.

With the application installed, the Windows key on the keyboard will simply open the old menu that people were used with. The design has been slightly modified to go along with the new look of Windows, but there are not major differences from the original Start menu. There are also various enhancements that tend to make the current Start menu app better than the original menu in Windows. This time, users have the possibility of customizing the various menus that are available upon pressing the Windows key. The design of the Start button can also be easily modified, without difficult changes to the OS.

At the moment, the tool does not have a proper integration with the applications downloaded from the Windows Store, but this feature will probably be available soon. Only the software programs that are installed through the normal interface will show up in the menu of this application. Start Menu 8, unlike other competitors of the same kind, provide more tweaks to the old Start menu bar and does not only offer a simple bar that was copied from a past operating system. This is why the application is suited for those that want to have a flexible desktop under a Windows OS.
