There have been others that have asked this question but the common registry setting that was suggested doesn’t work any longer. What I would like to do is something similar to StartIsBack that “reinvokes” the code to bring the Start Button/Menu back to Windows 8, or I could replicate the work done similar to the other Windows 8 start button alternatives.
Does anyone know how to programmatically (C++ or C#) reinvoke the start button?
In Win8/2102, Microsoft went through the Windows code to proactively remove all code related to the start button. I doubt you’ll find any APIs left over you could use.
