Heard of this cool tool yet? Skip Metro Suite

Skip Metro Suite is a freeware application that allows you to boot directly to Classic Desktop in Windows 8 RTM as well as Release Preview. The program is designed for Windows 8, and features tweaks from the publishers’ latest article “How to disable the edge panels (Charms Bar and Switcher) in Windows 8.” With Skip Metro Suite, you can disable top-left corner (aka Switcher) as well as Charms Bar hint. This feature eliminates the need to tweak anymore in order to perform all tasks.

A lot or some of us already are aware that Windows 8 doesn’t allow you to boot directly to Classic Desktop; and rather you have to click your Desktop tile on every occasion you log in. What the publishers of Skip Metro Suite have been able to do with the program is that users of Windows 8 can now boot directly to Classic Desktop instead of their operating systems.

Also included among the features of this version in review is the ability to disable the disable the Charms Bar Hint, as well as disable the Switcher.

Downsides?

There have been a couple of complaints about how sluggish Skip Metro Suite can be. However, the program is still new, and a lot of changes can still be made.

Not a bad program; after all it is free, and the future certainly looks very bright.
