Here are my testing results (I ran through all the options and tested as thoroughly as I could, on fully-patched Windows 8 x64, using x64 registry key): - The "Shutdown Action" should be preloaded with a value - If "Shutdown Action" cannot be preloaded, then the value should be validated, and a friendly warning should be used instead of "List index out of bounds" - Clicking "Defaults" should also reset "Shutdown Action" and "Number of recent programs to display" options to their default values. - The "Number of recent programs to display" appears to have an off-by-1 bug (I choose 8, it lists 7) - If I go through the options and turn everything off, yet I still see "Pictures" and "Music". Those 2 should have options, identical to "Documents" and "Videos". - Right clicking a program shortcut does not immediately show "Pin to Start menu". I have to shift-right-click. Can you make it work on just Right click only? - The Windows Logo no-longer represents Windows 8, and should either be a Windows 8 Logo or customizable. - I originally had a problem on installation, because I ran the registry key, but had saved files to "C:\Program Files\StartIsBack". Upon restart, Windows 8 only half-loaded. I found the problem, and relocated the files, but this begs 2 questions: - Can the user select their own install location? - What should happen if, on Windows load, the StartIsBack files cannot be located? I haven't tested the shutdown options, nor the Modern UI Apps... but you've done a great job so far. You should work to explain the "special magic", so we know what's going on behind the scenes. The paranoia in people need to know how your program works, because right now it feels like we're running rogue code. As far as your ambitious goal of "It's Apps Screen and shows only Metro programs (not implemented in beta 0)"... I don't recommend going that route. For user flexibility (I may WANT a mix on my Apps screen!), I'd just leave the Apps screen alone. Kind Regards, Jacob Klein
