Windows 8 Can Be A Pain - Fix It!

8 worst Windows 8 irritations (and how to fix them) | PCWorld. I just realized, after reading this post, that Start8, my favorite third party utility for Windows 8, has already fixed most of the annoyances of the new Windows 8 Operating System. I love the under the hood improvements in Windows. It is leaner, meaner, and faster. It is more secure; although, sometimes, the security scheme can be annoying. I will put up with that; but, I hate not having a start button, I hate the lock screen, and I hate booting to the new interface, formerly known as Metro. Read this post, and learn how to get rid of the most annoying new things in Windows. Oh, and I learned one important new thing in this post. The best Video Player substitute for Windows Media is the free VLC Media Player. Awesome program, which will play anything you throw at it. And, before you even boot the thing, find and install Start8. Now, go forth into the new world.
