How to add Start Menu to Windows 8

Hi friends I know your are enjoying your Windows 8 OS, but somewhat uncomfortable with absence of start menu. Microsoft has redesigned its interface to modern level and optimized highly for touch screen devices, that's why general PC and laptop user needs to play hard at the beginning. I have submitted some options to add Start menu to Windows 8.

StartMenu8 is specially designed for Windows 8. It offers a perfect solution for users who work with Windows Start Menu all the time and are not accustomed to the new Metro start screen in Windows 8. This smart tool brings back both the start button and Windows Start Menu, and offers the option to skip Metro start page, allowing users who only work on desktop to boot to Windows 8 desktop directly.
