I was wondering if there was a way to get the classic Start Menu in Windows 7? I know there are programs such as Classic Shell, but I hate the idea of running an application for a feature which, IMHO, should not have been removed. It sort of gives me that "incomplete" feel...
I guess there's no way to port it from Vista? (Apologies for my child-like curiosity, it's just never something I thought about until I used 7).

Just consider Classic Shell as the same as porting it back from Vista, only better. Try it. You can always remove it if you really don't like it.

Cheers and Regards

It is possible to port it from Vista?

I am using Classic Shell, but it feels so...imperfect knowing that it isn't a "part" of the operating system, and that it can be closed at any time.

the code was removed in Windows 7 and the only chance is to install Classic Shell.

Two I know of; try Google:

ClassicShellSetup_3_4_1.exe

ClassicStartMenu_Setup_3_88_PRO.exe

I've been using Classic Shell and would recommend it.

Ditto, here.

Might even test the IE9 add-on that makes it less suck-tastic.

Avoided it on my desktop, lasted 45 mins on my laptop, ugh what a horrific interface.

Dear M-soft, if I wanted Chrome, I'd download it...WTH are you guys doing?
