Actually you can boot windows 8 to desktop... :wtf:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\Current Version\Winlogin

Modify Shell string and amend explorer.exe to "explorer.exe /select,explorer.exe" :)

Mate this Trick is for Skipping Start Screen and opening File Explorer at win Log ON.
