How to use Windows 8 WITHOUT Metro - Classic Shell

Posted by Philipp Esselbach on: 09/26/2012 03:11 PM [ Print | 0 comment(s) ]

Dedoimedo posted a tutorial about using Windows 8 without Metro




Listen carefully. This article offers a guaranteed way of using Windows 8 without ever having to see the Metro crap. This method works with the latest Windows 8 Enterprise RTM Build 9200 edition, and as such, ought to work with all versions of this operating system forever and ever. This tutorial supercedes the older Metro disable article that was only relevant in the Developer Preview edition but no longer true in the Consumer Preview.

I will now show you how you can use a tool called Classic Shell, a collection of features that existed in older versions of Windows and were later removed, to customize your Windows 8 installation so that it never shows the Metro screen. You will gain back the standard Start menu, the button, the options, everything. This is an absolute must and a prerequisite for wanting to use Windows 8. We did the same thing in Windows 7, but here, it's an absolute must. Please take a look.
