Well for those users who wants an easy navigation on Windows 8 and you don't want the Metro Interface then fortunately the long time favorite classic menu is here.

Introducing Classic Shell


Classic Start Menu is a clone of the original start menu, which you can find in all versions of Windows from 95 to Vista. It has a variety of advanced features:

Drag and drop to let you organize your applications

Options to show Favorites, expand Control Panel, etc

Shows recently used documents. The number of documents to display is customizable

Translated in 35 languages, including Right-to-left support for Arabic and Hebrew

Does not disable the original start menu in Windows. You can access it by Shift+Click on the start button

Right-click on an item in the menu to delete, rename, sort, or perform other tasks

The search box helps you find your programs without getting in the way of your keyboard shortcuts

Available for 32 and 64-bit operating systems

Has support for skins, including additional 3rd party skins

Fully customizable in both looks and functionality

Support for Microsoft’s Active Accessibility

Converts the “All Programs” button in the Windows menu into a cascading menu (Vista and Windows 7)

Implements a customizable start button for Windows 8

And last but not least – it's FREE!
