Next on tap will be to review all the existing links and fix or clean them up.

Hi JorgeA,

I just tried all the links and most all are still working as advertised, except for Lenovo QuickLaunch and Toshiba Desktop Assist. And perhaps those two apps might still be found on their respective sites - someplace.

Ah hah, so another start button/menu (i.e. Start Menu Reviver) joins the ranks eh. Welcome to the party. :-)

I'm not sure why. . . (scratching head and wondering to self) but I am looking forward to the release of Windows 8.1. And I say I'm not sure why, because the way I have my Win8 set up I very seldom see or use any of its new metro interface (unless I have specifically chosen to do so). Still, fixes, and worthwhile enhancements or 'renovations' will be accepted; here, all improvements are welcome, all other is not.

All the best to you JorgeA.

regards,
Laurence

Wow Laurence, thank you -- you saved me a ton of work!! :thumbup :thumbup I wish there were an official way to give you Kudos, as in some forums.

Yes, we sensibly hope that an updated product will mean improvements. We shall see. The drum's rolling...

Great to hear from you again! :hello: All the best to you too.

Odd. Lenovo's page for Windows 8 support still lists the QuickLaunch button, but when you click on the link, the result says that "the document is not available."

A search on the Toshiba site for Desktop Assist yields nothing (literally a blank page for me).

We'll remove both of these. Too bad.
