Besides frequently used programs, WinMetro also offers apps for Facebook, Calendar, SkyDrive photos, the weather and more on the Start Screen. In addition, it has built-in live widgets that display information in real time, such as weather forecast, calendar, news, and stocks.
WinMetro is easy to install and use. It also offers the option to boot to Metro Start Screen directly (you can enable or disable this feature by clicking the WinMetro configuration icon). The main attraction of this program is that it brings the Windows 8’s Modern UI experience to older versions of Windows; however, it is also productive, for example, you can access the most frequently used system tools and recently opened programs quite easily and faster, which saves time during working or surfing. Note: it is a beta product and doesn’t have any option to add or remove items on the Start Screen. Interested users can download WinMetro from developer’s website here.
