From the developer:
Skip Metro Suite for Windows 8 is a program that allows you to boot directly to Classic Desktop in Windows 8 RTM and Release Preview. Also it enables you to completely disable all edge panels, not just hide them. All of them will be disabled, including square start button at bottom-left corner.
Attention to all Windows 8.1 users. YOU DO NOT NEED TO USE THIS APP!
