ClassicStartMenu
AVAILABILITY
WA2L/WinTools
DESCRIPTION
ClassicStartMenu
provides a classic version of the Windows™
'Start'
menu on Windows™ 7, 8, 8.1 and 10.
This is particular interesting on Windows™ 10 where
the menu gets very long and sub-menus are no longer shown
even when the installed software would provide some.
The original Windows™
'Start'
menu is still available thru an extra menu point.
Furthermore the original Windows™
'Start'
menu is not deleted by the
ClassicStartMenu
command, "only" the presentation changes.
If you want to return to the original menu, simply do not start
the
ClassicStartMenu
command any more.
