Windows 7 Start Menu? - Windows 8 General

I can't seem to find any posts but I'm sure they are out there.
Is there an app or program that allows me to use a different start menu but still use the windows 8 start menu?

Oooo i didn`t know that thought it was something more technical. i googled it as well and still couldn`t work out the difference!
Which one should i download?
Your choice really - Thought the CSVD version of Duttys ROM is more popular... by 3 fold
You can see on YouTube how the two work.
Microsoft Voice Command
Cyberon Voice Commander (Polish but you'll get the idea)
Please watch where you post new threads. This does not belong in the ROM Development section

Maybe a MOD can move this to the correct section.
Cheers mate

Me too, after much googling and getting my research wrong, this was a great help to point me in the right direction
Useful post, thanks
Just about to decide which one I want to use
This question has been bothering me also. MSVC was Microsoft Visual C++ to me..., thanks a lot.

I guess you didn't rerad forum rules, did you? This is no place for random questions. Please post this question in apropriate forum:

I can help you once it's there. Every extra random tread here makes really useful stuff much harder to find.
[EDIT]
damn, you were faster, HRQ. But since we do have Q&A section now, please don't encourage people to post questions here by answering them. I know more people reads this section, and i know someone might just need a "quick answer" but such treads really make forum navigation much harder.

Now I found these all on the very first page of the forum.
So I'm going to use a quote that is been used many times on the forum.
USE THE ****ING SEARCH TOOL.
it's there for your pleasure.
also, just browse around and who knows what nice things you may find.

Well, there is this thing about this forum.
You see, lots of people are building nice little programs for windows based phones, and there are many things that they didn't think of, because they didn't think that their keyboard was a really big problem.
They did find it a problem to have a keyboard to use with their fingers, because ot wouldn't leave enough space for their text mesaging.
battery life, it's seeded on the forum about that object.
and I did see a program that helped closing programs for you, but you might just wanna try start -> settings -> taskmanager -> buttons, maybe this already helps you
Everything on this forum is free and everyone is very willing to help you, but not if we see a question for the so maniest time.
What I propose to you, is if you are looking for something, but can't find it, make a request.
make perfectly clear what you are looking for and how this could benefit you.
maybe one of the programmers might see the benefit as well and wants to write someting for you.

Well the answers you have got show just what an unwelcoming and unfriendly place this is - certainly one of the worst forums for that I know. But then lots of useful info too, and that is the problem. Despite the "in crowd" people's suggestion the search tool is marginally more useful than wetting your finger and sticking it in the air, unless you are used to it!
Just a shame nobody has any Christmas spirit for newcomers aint it!
Hmm, I see what you mean.
Funny thing is, I didn't mean it to be this harsh, but as I read it back, I see how easily it is to provoke people.
So hereby I apologize to Hawk-Kthulu
I'll also will use the f word some less in the future.

is there any way to set another email software to the email tab?

HI
I think I saw this question before but without an answer and now I couldn't find it again, then I'm asking, I bought Flexmail and I would like to set it to the email tab.
thanks!
i have the same problem, but still no solution too

it's very simple to do
use search
invest the time, try different key words
and you will find SSMaPa

thanks both of you, but I already checked SSMaPa, but until now and according to what I understood, no one has been able to do it yet!!
That is in the Diamond group, not sure SSMaPa works on the Blackstone. anyone tried it? It would certainly be useful.

I think I can say something similar, like: the ones who make a recommendation should check if is useful or not, even more after the sarcasm.
but thanks for the advice anyway, I will keep it in mind for my future posts!!

what?
when you ask for help on a forum you should tell people what the problem is and what steps you have taken to resolve it. i thought that was just common courtesy.
how can anyone know that you already tried the suggested solution, SSMaPa?
i know it's a useful suggestion because that's what i personally used SSMaPa for - change default apps launched by TouchFLO 3D
sorry if i didn't know that it wouldn't change the mail app. hey it's free advice, you get what you pay for.

How Do I Remove Programs from HD2?

how do i get rid of programs from hd2 and all traces of it from the registry? i want to remove programs i dont use or like. how do i that? and how do i get rid of traces of them from the registry?
Settings/applications/choose application, then uninstall.
Assuming you are using Windows mobile, go to Settings > Remove Applications.
Choose the App and Click Remove. This is the default uninstallation method.

again, thats not the correct method.
does anyone here really know how to remove programs? I read somewhere that you go to start > file explorer > windows > start menu and remove programs you dont like. but does this method remove the program itself or the shortcut? again, i need to remove the program, its shortcut, and any traces of it from the registry.
Does SKTools do the job?

yes it is, start - settings - system - remove apps
you can also use activesync to remove applications

i dont think you know what youre talking about. read my last post.
again, does anyone know if i can remove programs like, BlockBuster, Barnes n Nobles, Transformers, and slacker radio through start > file explorer > windows > start menu? i also need to know if the shortcut and traces of it will be removed from the registry.
.
you mean the preinstalled rom stuff then not programs but seeing as you seem to know its not correct process ill leave you be as your attitude wont get you many replies

troll? lol good one mate, people have tried to help you but you have said to each and every reply that they are wrong, yes or no? if you are talking about removing preinstalled apps that are part of the rom then you need to explain more clearly as to remove applications you have personally installed is the method that the 2 posters abover have given
if 3 people are telling you the same info then maybe its your way of thinking and your attitude is the troll like one here mate, people are trying to help you out
and you have no fear i have no intention of trying to help you out in future
Blimey, and I thought I was special, being banned from his threads, seems anyone can join the "stop attacking me you're a troll" club.

I think you are talking about removing aps that are preinstalled in a ROM. If this is the case then yes the way that has been posted will not work. There is a thread on here somewhere about hoe to remove preinstalled apps but I can not remember exactly where it is. Do a searh here in HD2 General forum, in the HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A and general forum, and in the HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Development forum. You might have to keep changing your search terms also use advance search and try jist searching thread titles and not posts to see if you have more luck if searching post keep coming up empty.
OP, you should edit your first post here to clarify what you are trying to do. It seems like several members were trying to help you and you haven't been very polite with your responses. If the replies get out of hand this thread will be closed.

newbie or not doesnt mean you have to give the type of responses you have, ive noticed your other posts seem to be very confrontational aswell, but if 3 people are giving the same answers then you either havent asked correctly or assume they are incorrect
i have asked if it is the preinstalled rom stuff but you have, again, ignored to answer that and go off on a tangent about being a troll, how can we be trolls? or maybe you need to look up the definition of a troll

hey t-mac, how are you? yeah i'm trying to remove preinstalled apps from the rom. but i also want to make sure that the shortcuts are also deleted and any traces of the apps removed from the registry.
i appreciate your response. and i'll search for that. thanks man.

its not that... i just noticed many trolls on my past threads and some people dont take others seriously. thats all. at times, i have to give responses like the ones i've given as defense against people who i perceive as trolls. its a defense mechanism i got. its helped me in life.
i didnt see your post about uninstalling preinstalled apps. i just want to know if i can remove both the shortcuts and traces in the registry. if so, how? i read somewhere that ppl have removed preinstalled apps, but their shortcuts remained on the phone.
Settings----->applications
