    Start Button

    I tried Windows10 and miss the Start Button. Oh they have the little window to click but it is useless compared to the original Start button. Guess Windows just isn't going to admit they made a mistake in my opinion removing the original start button. Has any company There is probably already a fix to restore it.

    I'm guessing you didn't run Win8 or 8.1. The Start button just opens the Metro/Modern screen by default. Win10 is an improvement over that.

    In my opinion the new start menu is an improvement over the original start menu. Right click on the windows button, and you will get all the functions that you think are missing and more.

    I used IOBITS Start Menu 8 on my 8.1 machine and now Windows 10 is supported too so I installed Start Menu 8 on my Wndows 10 machine and it works great. I also switched to IE 11 browser and gave MS Edge the boot. Computer performs outstandingly.

    I'd be careful with Iobit apps. They are known to have adware included.

    Just wanted to let you guys know that this piece of *** IOBit StartMenu8 contains SPYWARE and ADWARE and should not be installed by anyone.

    You have a month to go back to windows 7, if you so wishes. Go in recovery in you'll see an option to return to your old o/s.
