In 2007 I made ViStart, the most popular Vista start menu simulator. My vision was to prove that Vista functionality can be achieved in Windows XP. Soon, Windows 7 would be developed. Instead of simply tweaking the interface for ViStart I decided to rewrite the entire project from scratch with a new vision in mind. Although ViStart 7 comes with a Windows 7 skin, it is much more than simply a Windows 7 start menu simulator. I decided to write a new interface engine which would open up the start menu design and layout to theme creators. Now the worlds best Vista start menu has just got better. Today ViStart is the ultimate start menu for Windows! Not only does it come with features from Windows 7 but its now the most essential custom start menu for Windows.
