Written By CompactSoft on Thursday, March 14, 2013 | 12:11 PM

PreActivated C.R.U.D.E 
Released : March 12, 2013


WORKING & TESTED on Windows 8


StartIsBack is a great way to relieve your (and your users) Windows 8 pain 

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. 

Features 


• Boot to desktop 
Your 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 menu 
StartIsBack 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 separated 
StartIsBack 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-free 
Windows 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 native 
StartIsBack 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 configuration 
StartIsBack 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. 

• More to come!
