i just got a new Asus Laptop with Win 8.1 and a touchscreen in addition to the usual keyboard/mouse which then downloaded to the new OS version "8.1 Update". There are many sites online that will tell you how to have the computer boot right to Desktop and bypass the pita password screen. There is no need for any add on launcher or software to get the desktop to now work like 7. If you look at the lower half of the app screen - now called start it is very much like the old start menu. Just ignore or delete the Windows Apps and leave the software you want or install.
There are still things about Win 8, 8.1, or 8.1 Updt that are confusing and just ridiculous but it is manageable. If one can wait until August for the release of Win 10 it brings back the original start menu and goes back to pretty much Win 7 with added features.
