Welcome to Tekzilla Daily, I’m Veronica Belmont. Users who have recently migrated from XP to Windows 7 who have noticed many changes, one of the biggest being the revamp Start Menu. Most of these programs are right there for easy access and you can just type in the box at the bottom to find anything else. But, what if you really missed the old XP Start Menu layout or can’t function without it? Never fear, your answer is right here. Just follow this URL and download Windows Classic Start Menu. Once installed, you’ll be able to browse your Start Menu just like you could back in the good old XP days.

Now quite what you had in mind, just right-click the start button and click Options. You’ll be able to tweak the appearance including using Windows arrow to make the menu transparent. And even change the background and text colors. And the Windows 7 version of the Start Menu is still just a click away if you start longing for that handy search feature. So tweak your Start Menu with Windows Classic Start Menu.
