Closing a W8 app currently takes me back to the Desktop. I would prefer that closing a W8 app would take me back to the W8 Start menu. Is there a setting for this? (I think it'd be more intuitive AND it'll help me to get used to the W8 environment) The WIN key IS working intuitively, in my opinion: - In Desktop, WIN-key takes me to the W8 Start menu - In W8 Start menu, WIN key takes me to the Desktop (and ESC takes me to the Desktop as well) - In W8 App, WIN key takes me to W8 Start menu |

After instaling Windows 8.1 Update 1 it changed this behavior for me. Now I can see no way to return to the Tiles view after closing Metro app. It always comes back to desktop. I noticed Startisback can return you to Tiles view after closing Metro app with last used environment setting. Can classic shell add it please? |

In Windows 8.1 the setting that skips the Metro screen on startup is the same that controls if apps go to the desktop when they close. It is stupid, I know, but it is what it is. You can change it from the Navigation tab of the taskbar properties. |
