Windows 8 Start Screen Customizer 1.4.10 Beta

Windows 8 Start Screen Customizer is a small-sized and portable piece of software that gives

you the possibility of personalizing the Start screen of Windows 8, according with your own

preferences .

Since installation is not a prerequisite, you can simply drop the executable file anywhere on

the disk and click it to run.

As an alternative, you can move Windows 8 Start Screen Customizer to a USB flash drive or

similar storage unit, in order to run it on any computer with minimum effort.

An important factor to take into account is that the Windows Registry does not get new

entries, and leftovers are not kept on the hard disk after eliminating the utility.

The interface is made from a standard window with a clean working environment, where you can

preview the buttons layout.

It is possible to change the number of rows, Start screen and tiles opacity, as well as load

a picture from the local drive or removable disk to use as desktop wallpaper. Other options

of Windows 8 Start Screen Customizer let you enable the Gaussian blur effect and slideshow

mode, as well as make the app automatically run at system startup.

The program uses a pretty light amount of CPU and RAM, so it doesn't put a strain on system

performance. No error dialogs have been shown throughout our evaluation, and the app did not

hang or crash. Since it includes an intuitive workspace, even first-time users can quickly

figure out how to work with Windows 8 Start Screen Customizer.
