Do we need something called Charms? Are they "Lucky"?

Makes Windows 8 sound like a toy for the pre-Bieber age-group.

Bob, that site gives no indication that it's for Windows 8.

Generally I find tools that try to change the look and behavior of the shell to be particularly fragile and troublesome when upgrading as they are so specific to the version of the operating system.

If you read the article, there is no mystery, and I'm personally not interested in changing how Windows 8 does shutdown, it's perfectly acceptable to me.

You might want to check out a program called:

Classic Start Menu

www.classicstartmenu.com

Once installed. all the mystery will be gone and you can still access the new Metro Desktop if you choose to.
