I dont have too much trouble with the start menu structure (dont particularly like it, but no trouble), but when I start an application from it, there doesnt seem to be a way to exit from it or shut it down (no X button), and it appears to keep running even if you go back to the start tiles and open something else. There are lots of additional choices out there for restoring the Start button and menus, and booting directly into the desktop including Startw8, Retro UI, PokkieStartMenu, StarMenuX, and Power8.

It became a powerful alternative for folks now struggling with Windows 8 and 10. In fact, it was developed in response to changes in those operating systems. In fact, if you want to re-visit your tiled Start menu, just hold down Shift as you click on the Start button.
