Microsoft destroyed their classic start menu in Windows 8. Afterwards, they knew that is a mistake, so in the updated versions of Windows 10, they restored this convenient feature that every Windows user is familiar with and used to use (although they tried to hang in there to see whether it’s possible to force users to be used to use their new Metro Menu design in Windows 8 and the early versions of Windows 10), even if it is still not perfect enough (just switching between Metro and desktop). This case, we have to turn to third-party software for help.

3in1, 4in1 & 5in1 Mini Editions of Microsoft Office Professional Edition 2003

Until now I’d still like to use Microsoft Office Professional 2003 (codenamed Office 11), not the much fatter and slower 2007, 2010, 2013 or 2016. Here, AppNee provides the ultra high compressed versions (less than 33 MB), which are all the tiniest/minimalist ones you could ever seen on the whole Internet. They were all tested working all right on Windows XP, 2003, Vista, 7, 8, 8.1, 10.

ECap – Easy and tiny universal camera tool for Windows

Starting from Windows Vista, Microsoft removed the originally built-in camera program from system tools. That is to say, you would never see Windows XP’s classic, convenient, and practical camera icon in My Computer/Windows Explorer again. Instead, you had to install some third-party applications to call our camera device that had been driven (such as all kinds of communication tools that support video chat).

Mohaned-B Folder iChanger – Customize folder icons permanently

By changing the folder with different styles, we can greatly improve the computer operation efficiency. Although it’s possible to simply modify the icon of folder in the ‘Folder icons’ field of folder’s ‘Properties’, when you move (equivalent to change the path) or rename this folder, all will return to their original state. I do believe many people who would like to change their folder icon encountered this troublesome problem ever.

5D PDF Creator – Old but classic PDF document virtual printer

In 2010, I mistakenly chose one of partitions on my mobile hard drive when I was using Ghost backup file (GHO) to recovery the system partition (C volume), which led to a devastating partition-level of data loss. Since then, I have been sealing this entire hard disk all the time. Until 2017’s first half, I finally had enough time and patience to restore most of the data inside. And among these recovered files, I accidentally discovered a very handy and practical software – 5D PDF Creator, which was published as early as 2008, and has been discontinued and gone from Internet for many years.
