Windows 8.1 program kills the Start button because no one can ever be happy
Ready for the controversy surrounding the Start button in Windows 8 and 8.1 to be over? Too bad – it's here to stay.
In a post on the Neowin forums, Sergey of Winaero wrote how he isn't pleased with Microsoft's decision to bring back the Start button but not the Start menu in Windows 8.1. So how is Sergey going to solve the problem? By getting rid of the Start button entirely with a new program.
"After release of Windows 8.1 I found its Start button useless," he wrote. "Seriously, there are no issues for me if that button is not shown on the taskbar. Sure, I miss the old good Start menu."
