This apparently works very well. With Windows 7, it was hard to set it but could be done in registry. Windows 8 made it even harder, so this tool is a boon.
Alongside that, MS is releasing a service pack down the line that will finally put the start menu back into the "desktop mode" of Windows 8. I was all for revising the "desktop" paradigm, but MS screwed up the design of the new Windows 8 interface. It is ideal for touch screens, but very poor for mice. Glad they are fixing this. It was the thing that kept me from upgrading to the new OS.

"On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." ~ Charles Babbage (1791-1871)
