Microsoft Removes Start Button in Windows 8 “Consumer Preview”, Adds Hot Corner [Poll]
The move to the new Metro UI as the default for Windows 8 has stirred up a good bit of controversy since its introduction this past Fall. Now Microsoft is taking another step in this new direction with the removal of the Start Button in the upcoming “Consumer Preview”.
As you can see in the final “pre Consumer Preview” build screenshots above and below, the Super Bar remains intact, but definitely lacks the classic Start Button that we have all been accustomed to seeing. Instead you will have a “Hot Corner” available that will display a thumbnail-like user interface (Metro and desktop modes) for accessing the Windows desktop and Start Screen.
Here are some additional screenshots from the PCBeta forum…
