A lot of changes came with Windows 7, including changes to the Start menu. Taskbar Classic Start Menu lets you go back in time to the days of Windows 2000 and Me, by way of a system notification icon. The menu gives you the best of both Windows worlds.

When installed, Taskbar Classic Start Menu appears as an icon in your system tray. Right-clicking it introduces a Start menu that indeed looks and acts just like Windows 2000 and Me menus. You’ll find the Run, Settings, Programs, Favorites, and Recent functions right where you left them before the transition to the newer versions. The Settings menu is where you go to change the appearance to various Windows XP, 2000, 95, and NT themes.
