Developer’s Description

Tame Windows 8 interface and get full control of your desktop.
Start Charming tames the Windows 8 interface and gives you back the desktop. Now you can be productive again. The great thing about the Windows 7 Start menu is you could still see and access the desktop, the system tray and the title bar of your programs while it was active, Start Charming brings this to Windows 8. Stop complaining about the new interface, and Start Charming. This program is meant mostly for traditional mouse and keyboard workstations, and will not run on Windows 8 RT (arm processor).
