So Classic Shell is the safe way to do it. But it involves editing the Windows Shell files and that's just too risky,as you can break Windows.

There are several tutorials on the web about changing the start button on Windows 7,Windows Vista and Windows XP. However,you cannot change the start button on Windows Vista.Because the new version Classic Shell does not support this.Or at least not yet.īut this is the first time we have ever been able to change the start button on Windows 7. Also the other changes are that when you search your folders on Windows 8,you are now taken to Windows Explorer,instead of the Metro start menu.īut also you can now add and create your own custom start button on Windows 7 in the new version of Classic Shell.


So now Classic Shell boots directly to the desktop in the new and improved version.
