The latest in a lineup of Start menu replacements for Windows 8, Pokki is a free, fluid tool for users who crave more than the new Start screen.

If memory serves, XP and Vista lack that context-menu “pinning” option, but you can just as easily drag an Internet Explorer icon from the Start or All Programs menu to the Taskbar.

All Programs, Control Panel, Documents, a Shut Down menu—they’re all there. If you right-click the Pokki Start button and choose Settings, you’ll see a Boot to desktop option.
