As Microsoft Windows Operating Systems become more advanced, they add more features. However, they tend to drop or revamp features you enjoyed, too. If the familiar feel of older versions of Windows has been holding you back from upgrading, Classic Shell can help.
Classic Shell can give you back the desktop experience you remember from past
versions of Windows – from 95 to Vista. You’ll still have the power and
safety of more recent versions with the comfort of older ones. Not only that it can add some customization features to your
operating system, you can also change the look and feel of the Start menu,
folder and even the Start button.For example, Windows 8 doesn't have a Start button. If you don't think that's something that needs fixing, you're probably in the minority, at least for now. Maybe in time, Windows 8's Modern-style Start Screen will grow on users and it'll turn out Microsoft was right all along. Until that happens, Classic Shell remains a flourishing niche of aftermarket utility that bring the Start button (and menu) back to Windows 8.
There are also excellent ones like Stardock's Start8 and Pokki, that can do the same job. But you don't need to pay to get a Start button.
Classic Shell is one tool that's free, open-source and very customizable software that improves your productivity, enhances the usability of Windows and empowers you to use the computer the way you like it. The main features are:
- Highly customizable start menu with multiple styles and skins
- Quick access to recent, frequently-used, or pinned programs
- Find programs, settings, files and documents
- Start button for Windows 7, Windows 8 and Windows 8.1
- Toolbar and status bar for Windows Explorer
- Caption and status bar for Internet Explorer
