StartIsBack++ 2.9.5 [Update]

StartIsBack++

StartIsBack++ restores original Windows 10 start menu with all its features: search, pinned and recently used apps, fully customizable settings. Start button and Start menu look and behave exactly as they used to in Windows 7.

StartIsBack is lightweight and secure: it does not require administrator rights to install, consumes minimal amount of system resources, does not run additional processes or services.

What's hot about StartIsBack on Windows 10 now:

  • Live badges for modern apps on taskbar and Start menu!
  • Ability to reduce resource usage by disabling newer Start menu and Cortana processes from prelaunching
  • Ability to use adequately sized (32x32) large icons and larger start menu button on taskbar
  • Modern icon glyphs on Start menu right hand pane
  • Modern blur, drop shadow and immersive context menus for start menu
  • Fully dynamic DPI aware start menu and configuration app
  • New modern style with round user picture
  • Lots of new minor additions and tweaks

Changes in StartIsBack++ 2.9.3:

  • Medium and large icon sizes for pinned / All programs lists

  • Colorized default start button and All programs scrollbar

Changes in StartIsBack++ 2.9.4:

  • Fixed compatibility with older Windows 10 builds

v2.9.5 fixes:

  • Fixed taskbar z-ordering degradation
