Classic Start Menu is installed with 4.1 and gives you the functionality of the Windows 7 start menu - fully customizable.. check out the features http://classicshell.sourceforge.net/features.html#start_menu additional start button images can be downloaded from here http://www.sevenforums.com/themes-styles/34951-custom-start-menu-button-collection.html

thanks for the reply. ya ive used start8 and classic start menu and i like the start8 one better. i was wondering if this is integraded into DF because on start8 you cant get the start button to display on more than one monitor like you could with DF on win7.

Cool - I wonder if it would be possible to have the option when installing DF to have it recognize that you are running Windows 8 and offer a check-box choice between Classic Start and Start8 - I guess this would be up to Startdock to agree upon.

I noticed that the classic start gets installed on Win7 and XP even though you can't use it - would it be possible for the DF Installer to only install if Windows 8 is detected?

would prolly be a better idea to have DF have their incarnation of a start button for win8 dont you think? then they could control all aspects of it..

Thanks for the feedback guys! We're currently investigating the possibility of adding a Start button to the Windows 8 taskbar, so I'll be sure to post an update if/when we're able to.

Thanks!

Just a quick update here: DisplayFusion 5.0 Beta 10 now supports Start8 as well as Classic Shell. Make sure to also grab the latest beta of Start8, otherwise it won't work. The version you'll need is Start8 1.11.

Thanks!
