After:
As you can see in the above screenshot, start button is not present in the taskbar. You can access the start menu by pressing WIN key or Ctrl+Esc keys.
To show the start button again, simply close the app by right-clicking on its icon in system tray and select Exit.

just to give my opinion:
Wats the fun in it ? to remove the start button.
I mean the new vista orb looks a lot cooler then without it....
i am using that shiny blue start orb of windows seven superbar theme downloaded from this site and that really enhanced my computer's outlook.

@ Deyaa
you can (almost) do this via restorator or reshack. i always replace the start button png's to a 1px wide transparent one. this creates a 1 px wide invisible start button

One of the usb devices attached to this computer has malfunctioned and windows does not recognize it.
Even i uninstalled all usb root hubs under universal serial bus controllers but it didn't work out.

Thanks, very cool program. However is there anyway to call start button without using any keyboard shortcut maybe a new shortcut in toolbar?
