It is free software that has long been regretted, I also patronize. :)It has become open source recently because it became difficult to follow update of win10.
If Microsoft prepared such software that can reproduce the old environment, I feel that the flow of transition to win 10 was a little different.:unsure:

Personally, I really appreciate the Windows 8 start menu layout...far easier to find what I need, when I need it..using a 42" toshiba monitor makes all the difference. Using just one or two rolls of the mouse wheel and I can locate/execute anything I so desire, not having to mouse over sub-menus under sub-menus. For that matter, I fail to understand why users here still run Windows 7 (suspecting alot of posters here have either a bootleg os or the fact that Win7 serial keys are found anywhere for little to nothing..and the same group grabbed Win X for the same reason...(to cheap to pass up)...
When the day comes they announce Win8 will no longer be supported (and Im still alive at that time), I'll gladly move up to WinX, for by then, most of WinX will be polished for the business environment- the same principles apply for free security, you either choose to be part of the testing ground, or you buy security, and receive the proven product recommended for business environments.

The old rule.."There's No Such Thing as a Free Lunch" will always apply.
