IObit StartMenu8 is a small and free tool designed for Windows 8 users. It allows you to easily restore the classic Start menu layout, giving you quick and convenient access to the software installed on your computer. The Start menu bar added to Windows 8 using IObit StartMenu8 is almost identical to the one that was available by default in previous editions of Windows.

From its level, by default, we gain access to options related to computer power supply (turning off, restart, hibernate or sleep), the most frequently used locations (my documents, control panel, user's personal folder, computer, etc.) and all the applications and games installed in the system. There was also an integrated search engine for files, folders and software, as well as the option of attaching components to the bar. Importantly, IObit StartMenu8 also allows you to run a standard graphical interface with the system.

You can return to Modern UI at any time by pressing the Start button on the keyboard (the one with Windows logo).
