Just launch your program and you're done with it. Heck, just pin your programs to the taskbar and you'll rarely even see the Start Screen.
But if you install Classic Start Menu, you have the best of both worlds. You can use Metro and you can use the Start Menu. No limits. And it all runs very well.
