Put a quick-and-dirty Start menu on Windows 8 taskbar

Particularly high on the list of things that annoy people about Windows 8 is the omission of the Desktop's Start menu. Microsoft did its best to stomp it to death -- but it didn't quite succeed. In the Windows 8 cheat sheet I showed you how to use free or paid add-on programs to get the Start button and menu back.

If don't want to use third-party software to get a Start menu, you can build your own quick-and-dirty one in no time. You won't get the full traditional Windows Start menu with Search button, recently run apps, the Control Panel, your network and so on. Instead you get a menu that lets you browse through applications and launch them.

First make sure that you can view hidden files in File Explorer. Now right-click the Desktop's taskbar and select Toolbars --> New Toolbar. From the screen that appears, navigate to

C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu

where username is your account name, and click the Select Folder button. That will place a Start Menu toolbar on the far right of the taskbar. Click its double arrow to display a variety of folders (such as Programs and Computer) that you can browse through until you see the item you want; click it to launch it.

To make the Start Menu toolbar go away, right-click the taskbar and select Toolbars, then de-select the Start Menu listing. 

By the way, you may have noticed that when you right-click the taskbar and select Toolbars, there are other pre-built toolbars you can put on the taskbar. Here are your choices and what each does:

Address: Adds a box on the Taskbar into which you type URLs. After you enter one, press Enter and you'll head to the site in Internet Explorer.

Links: Displays your Internet Explorer favorites on the Taskbar.

Touch Keyboard: Displays a keyboard icon on the Taskbar. Click it to display an onscreen keyboard.

Desktop: Displays a list of every icon on your Desktop. It even displays some items that aren't visible on the Desktop, such as Homegroup. For any item with a subfolder beneath it (such as Homegroup and Network), you'll see an arrow next to it. Move your cursor to the arrow to see all of the subfolders beneath it.

To turn off any toolbar, right-click the taskbar and choose Toolbars, then uncheck the toolbar.

Making your Windows more private

We can use Registry to do that.

A.
1. First of all go to Start>Run, then type: regedit

2. Go to HKEY_CURRENT_USER > Software > Microsoft > Windows > CurrentVersion > Policies
3.  Rightclick on Policies>New>Key>name it into ActiveDesktop

4.  Make a DWORD value in ActiveDesktop, Rightclick in ActiveDesktop. Choose New. Choose DWORD Value.
5.  Name it into NoChangingWallpaper.  To make it active, Doubleclick it, then you should change the value into 1

If  you've done, you must log off then log on again  Then another user can't change your wallpaper.

And These are another tricks :

B.
Go to HKEY_CURRENT_USER > Software > Microsoft > Windows > CurrentVersion > Policies>Explorer then make values :
NoActiveDesktopChanges
NoChangeStartMenu 
NoControlPanel 
NoEntireNetwork 
NoFileMenu 
NoFind 
NoFolderOptions 
NoNetConnectDisconnect 
NoNetHood
NoPropertiesMyComputer
NoRecentDocsHistory
NoRecentDocsMenu 
NoRun 
NoSetFolders 
NoSetTaskbar 
NoSMHelp
NoStartMenuMorePrograms 
NoTrayContextMenu 
NoTrayItemsDisplay 
NoViewContextMenu 
NoWorkgroupContents 
C.
HKEY_CURRENT_USER > Software > Microsoft > Windows > CurrentVersion > Policies > Network
NoFileSharingControl 
NoNetSetup 
D.
HKEY_CURRENT_USER > Software > Microsoft > Windows > CurrentVersion > Policies > System
DisableChangePassword 
DisableTaskMgr 
NoDispCPL (No Display in Control Panel)
E
HKEY_CURRENT_USER > Software > Microsoft > Windows > CurrentVersion > Policies > WinOldApp
Disabled (Disabling Command Prompt)
