Cleanest Solution to Bypass Modern UI in Windows 8 (Bypass Metro Start Screen)

As you known by all, it isn’t possible to log on to desktop straightly in Windows 8, instead it’s always log on to the Modern UI. However, if you’re a power-user, or just want to boot your system straight to the desktop, there are few third party tools like Classic Shell, Start Menu8, etc. to skip the Start Screen, but before going to the desktop, these tools will display the Start Screen for a few seconds, which is annoying.

 If you’re looking for a cleanest solution to bypass Modern UI during sign-in, you’ll love the free utility Windows 8 bypass Modern UI. It bypass the Windows 8 new start screen and boot directly into the desktop. However, it won’t disable the Modern UI. It all works, only the sign-in behavior is affected.


Bypass Modern UI does not modify any files; this application simply makes a few modifications to the licensing system to eliminate the restriction that forces you to go to the start screen on login.

 Bypass Modern UI can be downloaded from the developer’s website here. After installation, just restart your PC (you might need to reboot your PC more than once to take effect). That’s it!

Remember that, the Bypass Modern UI zip file contains 32-bit and 64-bit installations. Choose right one for installation. Also, don’t forget to create a system restore point before installing this tool.
