At the end I achieved a solution: I created again a Windows task. This time, I selected a "simple" task (needs no password) and set the trigger to start it "on log on". I had also to define a delay to get it working correctly. Three seconds delay was not working; at the moment it...

I deactivated it and restarted the PC. No there is the old problem, that ClassicStartMenue does n...

Ok, I removed the "Run as administrator"-setting of ClassicStartMenue.exe and restarted the PC, but that did NOT solve the problem. ProcessExplorer shows ClassicStartMenue.exe still under svhost.exe and not under Explorer.exe. What can I do? Best regards Karl PS.: Sorry, I have to pause no...

I restarted the PC: Windows Explorer is still owned by TrustedInstaller. Which owner should it be? That problem is beyond my competence. How to find out, why Windows Explorer is owned by TrustedInstaller? Why does this ownership has no influence on all the other applications on my PC? Best regards K...

Since I installed W8.1 some weeks ago, the Start Button does not appear after booting the PC. - I followed the guidance in this forum and made a repair installation with the same CS version (4.02), but it did not solve the problem. - I also initiated the repair installation as administrator: no succ...
