Skipping / Merging Windows 8 Start Screen With Desktop

Immersive Taille is a freeware portable app to customize Windows 8 Start Screen. It provides few predefined locations to directly start with.Immersive-Taille-customize-windows-8-start-screen

Once you download this software, first go to the settings tab. By default Immersive Taille is not in English language, so change it to desired language. If you want the effects to be permanent, choose Immersive Taille to start with Windows. Automatic Shutdown can be selected, if you wish. The next tab to visit is Basic, as I said earlier you can select from top, bottom, left and right positions.Customize-Windows-8-start-screen

You can also Customize Windows 8 Start Screen and have it with the taskbar. To do this just select the last option i.e Full Screen + Taskbar.

 

 

Customize Windows 8 Start to appear on User Defined Position

You won’t have much fun using the predefined positions. So, I will recommend you to use your custom positions to enhance the visual experience. To achieve custom positions switch to Advanced Tab.

Position X and Y are the distance of Start Screen from the right and top. Height should be selected carefully else Tile visibility on Start Screen can be a problem. So with the values on the above image, my Start Screen appears as shown below.

After making the changes, make sure that you save them. Immersive Taille has an awesome interface and works well. It was tested on Windows 8 Pro 64 bit. So now Start Screen acts as a component of the desktop.
