Start menu and shutdown pc - Windows Server 2012 - Windows 8

I installed a trial version of Windows Server 2012, the start menu does not exist anymore. I tried couple of hours without the start menu but after a while it felt very primitive.
So what is the solution, well to use Classic Shell which brings back the old start menu.

This is the start menu in Windows Server 2012 and Windows 8, it needs a own full window.
instructions: drag mouse cursor to the right upper corner and it will bring this sidebar, then choose Start

Classic Shell is a free, open-source Start menu replacement. It includes skins that can mimic the Windows 7/Vista, Windows XP, or Windows 2000/98 start menus and is extremely configurable.
