Microsoft Re-Introducing 'Start' Menu In Windows 8.2. Expected by mid-2014.
Microsoft is reportedly planning to revive the 'Start' menu in its upcoming Windows 8.2, a news that shall be celebrated by desktop users all over the world. Windows 8 had brutally murdered the Start button, and many a users hated the complex tablet-like interface that the company was attempting to shove on their desktops. Rectification was made in Windows 8.1, where a Start button did find way in the OS, but a complete Start Menu shall feature in the upcoming Windows version.
Microsoft stated that the reason Windows 8 failed wasn't because it embraced mobile technologies, but because it failed to take into consideration how poor the experience shall be for 1.5 billion users who use Windows on traditional PCs.Microsoft Windows said- "A new team at Microsoft that’s responsible for overall OS development has clearly spent the past few months evaluating and then dropping most of the ‘my way or the highway’ silliness that doomed the original Windows 8 release. The ultimate failure of Windows 8 wasn’t that Microsoft embraced mobile technologies, it was that it did so without taking into account how poor this experience would be for the 1.5 billion people who use Windows on traditional PCs."
The Start menu, or Windows 8.2, shan't be seen until mid-2014, but people can now at least rejoice with the fact that the company is finally taking their concerns seriously.
