It takes about 20-30 seconds to remove all the preinstalled metro apps from the start screen. By the time you have installed the usual programs like VLC they will grab all the file associations and you will never see Metro again, unless you want to.
- shocks 13y agoAs I understand it, this is not true. Personally, I like to hit the windows key, type "fi", and hit enter to start Firefox. On Win7 this is a pleasant experience, on Win8 I feel like I'm being punched in the face by a wall of colour.
- bornhuetter 13y agoI almost exclusively launch programs in Windows 7 and 8 by pressing the start button and typing the name of the program. I've found Windows 8 to be better at finding the right program, and a lot better at finding settings when I want to change them (although I would prefer it if they displayed apps and settings on the same page). I can see how some people would prefer the old menu in the corner to the full screen, but personally I think the full screen is better. I'm not sure what part of my comment you are saying isn't true?
