It's the same in real Windows8. So please report this to Microsoft.

Sorry I meant it to be a Start screen that could be opened by clicking on Start in Charms bar and other buttons present in it could be used to perform the operations labeled on them. Just as clicking on Search would open a sidebar to search files. I could email you the screenshot what it looks like. But the difference is that the charms bar on my system has just three buttons. Thats it. Simple enough.
P. S. - I need your email to send the screenshot

I don't need a screenshot because i know what you are talking about. It is Winmetro Beta. This will be a paid program when it is finished. It's really not bad. Tried it myself a while ago.

👍: 0 ⏩: 1
The Windows 8 Media Player looks almost like the one of Windows 7, except of the transparency and the rounded corners of the borders. Or do you mean the Windows 8 music player?

i don't really need to reformat right? and can i still use my custom cursors and my object dock?

All these things are in separate folders. You can choose whatever you wanna use.This is no exe file, so you have full control.

oh, and can the changes be undone if i am find that i'm not comfortable with it? i especially like the windows explorer.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Copy your original explorer to a sfae place before replacing. So if you don't like the new one, simply replace it again.It's always good to keep the original files in a safe place.

what is net framework? i'm a newbie at this...
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
.NET framework is made by Microsoft to make it easier to code apps. You can go to Windows update page. Type NET framework in the searchfield and you can download it.

It works, only there is no preview for the first time you use it. Simply apply it, and the next time you will see a preview. A VS only contains images and is no way related to the language you use.
