#ModernResizer - v0.1

I no longer am using Windows 8.x, so I cannot support this program. If you have questions, please feel free to email me, but I will not promise a solution. This code will not work on Windows 10. The new XAML based start menu is much more difficult to modify, so I at this time do not see a means of updating for Windows 10.

That being said, if you are still using Windows 8.1, you it if you wish.

This program is freeware. It allows you to resize and move the Windows 8(or 8.1) start menu. You have 2 options to run it:

  1. Command line with arguments. Just run "ResizeStart -h" in the folder containing the program. It will print out the help

  2. With the user interface. Just double click the program, or run "ResizeStart" in the folder containing the program.
