No. You just need to learn to love METRO!!!
Actually I'm no Metro fan but using Chiclets to launch programs is a nice concept.

I was a Windows user for most of my life.
My family's first computer, which we got in 1991, ran Windows 3.0 and didn't come with a modem. (I remember helping my dad install one a few months later. We signed up for a Prodigy account, and I spent countless hours playing MadMaze after that.)
From then on we were a Windows family. In 1995 we bought a PC with Windows 95 and AOL. In 2000 we got a Dell that we'd eventually upgrade to Windows XP.
It wasn't until I joined the school paper my sophomore year in high school that I tried a Mac for the first time. I didn't look back after that. I declared myself a Mac user for life.
This was shortly after Apple released OS X, the same operating system Macs still use today. It looked better than Windows. It didn't get hammered with viruses and malware like Windows. The programs were more powerful for designing and publishing our school paper. The first thing I did with the truckload of money I got for graduation was buy a PowerBook for college.
Over the past 11 years or so, I barely paid attention to Windows in my personal life. I reviewed a bunch of Windows laptops, but none of them thrilled me. And Windows seemed to be getting clunkier and more complicated, while OS X kept getting cleaner and easier to use.
Windows Vista was a disaster. Windows 7 was better, but it wasn't good enough to make me want to switch. Windows 8 was a mess, and I'd argue that it was a mistake for Microsoft to release it.
But Microsoft's new version of Windows, Windows 10, is different, and I think it's the beginning of a fresh start for Microsoft's flagship operating system.

Indeed, thus Classic Shell is the answer.
