Windows 8 Developer Preview has generated lots of excitement across the globe with its release at BUILD couple of days back.( Windows 8 Developer Preview available for download Now ! ) Within less than a day of its release there were more than 500000 downloads.
Being a Developer Preview , the most exited are the developers and are trying out various things. TheWindowsClub has released a FREE tool called Metro UI Tweaker v 1.0 designed to tweak a few settings that are unavailable to users in Windows 8.
The tweaks being currently offered are:
- Disable Metro Start Menu: Disables only Metro Start Menu Screen. This function requires editing a System File. It does not remove the file.
- Disable Metro Ribbon: Disables only the Metro Ribbon UI. This function I discovered myself. It requires Taking Ownership of a System File. It does not remove this file.
- Disable Metro Start Menu and Ribbon: Disables the Metro Start Menu UI, Ribbon UI, Metro Task Manager UI and the Lock Screen.
- Enable Metro Start Menu and Ribbon: Re-enables all available Metro UI options.
- Add Power Options to the Metro Start Menu Screen: Logoff, Switch User, Lock, Sleep, Restart and Shutdown
- Add any Application/File to the Metro UI Start Menu Screen: Some Applications/Files may not be available to you to add to the Metro Start Menu Screen. This program allows you to add those Applications/Files which would otherwise be unavailable.
Metro UI Tweaker v 1.0 for Windows 8, 32-bit and 64-bit, has been developed by Lee Whittington for The Windows Club. It will be updated with more tweaks from time to time.
