Windows 7 explorer for Windows 8?

[John Doe]

This was mentioned in a prior thread by Dave-UK. Something about
using Windows 7 Explorer in Windows 8. I read the Web forum pages.
Has anybody tried it? I need to know what it's all about, so I
will try it here.

The author has written a new approach:

I think it's better than his hack using Win 7 files. (It's a 30 day trial.)
If you want to try out other Windows 8 start menu fixes:
