only getting Windows 8 metro screen when I click on start button

April 8, 2018 1:11 PM from

I installed Start 8 on windows 8.1 professional which is running on a Macbook pro using bootcamp drive partition. Windows 8.1 is running fine, but I can't get Start 8 to give me a Windows 7 type of appearance. When I click on the start button--I am getting the Metro screen. What am I missing?

Ok. Figured it out myself . Need to check boxes to view Start 8 menu instead of Windows 8 menu when start button is clicked on.
