How to eradicate Metro from your Windows 8.1 PC
You’ll need to right-click the desktop Taskbar, select Properties, and then open the Navigation tab in the window that appears.
You’ll need to right-click the desktop Taskbar, select Properties, and then open the Navigation tab in the window that appears.
Unchecking the options in the “Corner navigation” portion of the tab disables the “hot corner” functionality for the upper edges of your
screen. Note that you’ll want to leave the upper-left hot corner enabled if you plan to use Windows 8.1’s App Switcher to fast-switch
between modern-style apps.
The really important, however, is in the “Start screen” options. “When I sign in or close all apps on a screen, go to the desktop instead
of Start" is the option we’ve all been clamoring for: the ability to boot straight to the desktop. Check it now!
Now you have a decision to make.
Windows 8’s exiled Start button returns in Windows 8.1, but it’s missing a crucial component:
The Start menu. Instead, clicking it dumps you on the modern UI Start screen.
You’ll want to install a so-called Start button replacement program. PCWorld recently rounded up the best options available, and some
(like Stardock’s Start8) even let you disable all charms—something Windows 8.1 doesn’t allow.
