Looking for utility recommendations.

Our organization is not fond of the Windows 10 look and feel. I would
like to find some utilities that help to adjust the look and feel so
the interface more closely resembles Windows 7.


I appreciate all of the replies, even the snarky ones. I will check
out Start 10. Thanks!

Do your self and your organization a favor and take a minute to learn
the Windows 10 interface. After a slight learning curve you will find
that you actually prefer it to Windows 7's


No way. I decided to be what I thought was "sensible" and when I was
forced to use Windows 10 (change of computer) and get to like the new
interface. I had worked with it right through the test versions of
Windows 8 (totally unusable) and 8.1 (nearly unusable) so I figured
Windows 10 was not that hard. Oh Boy, was I wrong. I worked with it for
some weeks and, of course, managed to do most things but in the end I
gave in and added Classic Shell - mainly because I was sick of having to
do a hatful of keypresses to achieve what could be done with a couple in
Windows 7. The Windows 10 GUI is just totally and utterly inefficient.
It was designed for toy computers with touch screens and might, I
suppose, be OK for them if Android were not a country mile better. It is
totally inefficient for serious domestic and definitely for enterprise use.

Since then I've been much more able to cope with the chaos that ensues
every six months when Microsoft enforce a totally new O/S on us -
wrecking all the customisation that I've put in and involving me in
sorting out their latest string of broken systems.
