IMO, the WIndows 8 way is superior to a hierarchical menu. Press the Start button and you go to the Start Screen. Instead of navigating through menu after menu, just go to the start screen and start typing the name of the program you need. Faster, easier.

>I changed my home notebook and it has Win 8.1. It has a start menu but it's really different. There isn't applications submenu with this weird start menu. I don't like it. I know there are different start menu add ins for W8. What's your "freeware" advice?
