Redirect to original
Description
Windows8 "startmenu" for Xp, Vista and Windows7.This is a Vistart skin which simulates the Win8 startmenu. What are the benefits? No changes of your system. You can easily try it, and remove it, if you don't like it.
Check it out.
How to use? Download the exe from Leesoft. Unzip the content of this deviation and add the exe. Hover over the upper right corner of the startmenu brings up a little red square which opens the options menu. That's all.
If you want to have another targets for the buttons, simply edit the Settings XML file with the targets of your choice. In example you can add a shortcut to your Rainmeter to activate it from this menu. It's not the fast switch like the original, but better than nothing.
Screenshots are taken from my XP SP3 system.
No redistribution in Transformationpacks/Skinpacks allowed!
CAUTION
BE CAREFUL WHILE INSTALLING VISTART. NEVER, REALLY NEVER INSTALL BABYLON TOOLBAR. IT IS A TRASHY MALWARE WHICH POSSIBLY MESSES UP YOUR COMPUTER. GOOGLE FOR IT TO SEE WHAT I MEAN.
Take care.

Tried it and it still works.Install Vistart. It will be in the program folder. Make a copy of it, and remove the resources folder, the rollover folder and the settings file from the copy. Copy and paste the three files of this deviation to the same place. Doubleclick the Vistart exe. That's all.

You can. Download Vistart7 here[link] Install it. Unselect the install of this dumb toolbar while running the exe. After that go to your program files folder and look for a folder named Vistart. Copy and paste the exe to the folder of this deviation. Doubleclick on it and you are done.

Go to lee-soft.com and download Vistart. It is free. Replace the folders with the ones in this pack which have the same name. That's all. Hope this helps you.

Hey Peter, ViStart does not exist anymore. It is ViStart 7 and the content of the folder it's different from your archive and it doesn't work, do you have ViStart? Can u upload it somewhere? Please check what i've said.
I'll really appreciated. Thanks !

OMG I didn't know that installing Vistart is such a depressing procedure meanwhile.This is designed for Vistart7 and it works. Tried it for you ten minutes ago.After installing Vistart you will find a folder Vistart in your program files folder. Rename the folder of this deviation to Vistart2 and copy it in your program files folder. After that copy and paste the Vistart.exe in your Vistart2 folder and click the exe. That should work for you. Copy nothing else.

I just told you it is not really a menu with only 4 items in it. I prefer the win 7 startmenu. Thats all.
