One of the first things people notice in Windows 8 is the omission of
the Start menu from the desktop. There are several 3rd party
replacements for this feature available on the Internet.
Personally, I like to limit the installation of any extra software installed on my system (this is my preference).
If you find this annoying, but don't want to install a 3rd party replacement. You can create a pseudo Start menu by creating a new toolbar in the taskbar.
All you have to do is right-click the taskbar, and select Toolbars > New Toolbar, then paste in the follow path in to the file dialog box: %userprofile%\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs.

In the taskbar towards the right you will see the word Programs with
two little ">>" (greater then signs) next to it. Click the
little ">>" (greater then signs), and you should see all your
installed desktop programs.
