Windows Vista Start Button for XP

Viorb is a freeware that gives you the possibility to replace the standard Windows XP start button with Windows Vista start button without changing the whole theme. If you use third-party or unsigned themes, the modified start button can be replaced as well.

At first I didn’t know why anyone, who falls into a group of users that love to modify their standard themes, would use it. For people like them, changing the start button merely won’t give any satisfaction whatsoever.

But then I realized that not every theme has the start button like the way we want it. We could simply migrating to another new theme, but what if the other elements of the theme like the typography, color composition, start menu, and others are too good to be replaced? This is where Viorb takes its role.

There is nothing to be installed. The Windows XP start button will be replaced by Vista start button once you launch the program. Simply right-click the icon on the tray and select “exit” to revert to the standard start button.
