Start8 is a small application manufactured by Stardock (one of the most popular game and software development companies) that will allow its users to get back the traditional start button of Microsoft operating systems, which has disappeared with the arrival of Windows 8.

In addition to getting it back and placing it where it has always been, Start8 offers many configuration and customization options, to give you the look that you want. From the start menu icon to the color, everything can be customized to suit the user.

Also at your disposal, you will have a number of keyboard shortcuts that can be used for quick access to any part of the menu. Also, you can change the function of the Windows key that usually opens the start menu, by changing it to open the Windows 8 screen, if you want.

Start8 is an interesting application for any user who is interested in returning to the traditional Windows presentation. Also, the full version (this one is a trial) only costs five dollars.
