Jose_49 Posted August 7, 2012 Share Posted August 7, 2012 like I said, its marked as legacy and obsolete, although they need to keep the Win+R key but still take it to something that lets you type in command line esc commands like run did... but with the start menu removed now, how do you do that without going into command prompt Right click the left bottom corner, and click "run" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rorrr Posted August 7, 2012 Share Posted August 7, 2012 Right click the left bottom corner, and click "run" if neufuse is talking about launching processes like msconfig.exe, msinfo32.exe or services.msc, you can still do that from the Start screen (or the Search charm). go to the Start screen and just start typing then hit enter. you can also open network shares. I believe all the run commands from Windows 7's Start menu still work in Windows 8's Start screen. Brandon H 1 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nazmus Shakib Khandaker Posted August 11, 2012 Share Posted August 11, 2012 You can type in RUN commands in the start screen. Alternatively, you can type RUN and hit enter to show the legacy run dialogue box. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do I want to? No, not really. I appreciate that the option exists though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the lower right hand corner, you'll notice a minus sign [-]. Click it and you'll zoom out. Right click on any group and below you'll see the option to rename the selected group. Enjoy!
