This might be a good program, but on my Toshiba Laptop with Windows 10 Home 64 Bit, I use Classic Shell .. it brings the Start Menu back to how XP used to look and has some other useful tweaks in it as well. It is also totally free.
john, Quite simply, since GOTD programs will not allow reinstall after the offer date. Also why try something that costs money, when I already have a program that does for me, exactly what I want it to do. It does not seem to be worth the cost to me.
I have the previous GAotD version and found it extremely useful, so will recommend this one. Also it's trivial to exit back to the Windows Start Menu if that works better for something.
Okay, it did it again, very quickly after my restarting it, so I'd say that IMHO if you have 5.87 from a previous give-away then stick with it...
I guess I can't reinstall 5.87 so am moving on without it.
When Windows 8 was about to be released we purchased a 2-pack of Windows 8 Pro for $69.99 at Staples.com on a special deal they were running. No one will be surprised when I say that, although the underlying system had some major improvements over Win 7, the user interface was truly awful. So, we bought a copy of Start 8 from Stardock for $4.99 for our laptop and downloaded the free Classic Shell for the GF's PC. Both pieces of software made Win 8 and 8.1 easy to use. She was happy with Classic Shell, and when I used her PC sometimes I also thought it was perfectly OK. Start 8 was a little nicer, yet very similar in everyday use.
Start Menu X Pro takes the "usability" factor to the next level by offering several user interfaces. You can choose which one suits you best, and go from there. Power users may get the most value from it, but all will appreciate the logical choices made in the design. As i recall, there's a free version of Start Menu X if you want to get an idea of how well designed the software is.
コメント Start Menu X Pro 6.1

Classic Shell (freeware) works great for me, on several computers already.
(Just for someone who may be interested in alternatives...)

JohnL,
It stopped working for me too on my Win 10 laptop. Went back to Classic Start menu.
