If you are new to Windows 8 which was launched last year on 26.October. 2012 in all over the world then this is the feature which you are thinking about the most-Start Button. Just in case you haven’t upgraded yet, make sure to check out my previous articles on how you can install Windows 8 on a virtual machine without removing your current Operating System.

What is start menu button? 


Start Menu Button-: We all thought that button would be present forever which makes all programs and files under one place but Microsoft just proved us wrong and start button is replaced by a metro tile search and all apps menu in windows 8.

How to Include Start Menu in Windows 8


The good news is that some smart developers have already found some ways to include the start menu option to Windows 8. There are currently a few third-party applications out there that can help you find your way in Windows 8. So here are top  apps which I think can be useful for getting start menu back in windows 8.

1. Pokki Start Menu

Pokki Start Menu is probably one of the best-looking Start Menu out there. Although it does not look similar to the previous Windows Start Menu but it suits to windows 8 look.

2. Classic Shell

Classic Shell comes with a lot of options to play with.  You can switch to Windows Xp , Vista or Seven Start Menu easily. Best of all it is free and does not contain third party app and I will highly recommend you to use this.

3. Spesoft Windows 8 Start Menu

This one looks pretty much the same as the Classic Shell except that it lacks some features like the restart/switch user button, its just the alternative of classic shell with less functions  use it if you like to .
