Hi I just got an HP laptop with windows 8 installed and I immediately wanted to go back to booting straight to desktop and having a start menu, so I found startisback and downloaded it. I was coming here to complain that the part of "boot straight to desktop" wasn't working when I google searched and found that the problem was I had to disable login, which I was able to do with this article. So it turns out I have nothing to complain about Thanks for the great program. If things are still going great in 30 days, I'll be buying a license for it.
