My mistake—you're absolutely right. It's been a while since I've used Ctrl+Esc on previous Windows versions. It does indeed just open the Start menu.

Classic Shell is great, but I'm disappointed that its developers decided to have Ctrl+Esc open it immediately, without waiting for further keypresses. Normally, on PCs without Windows keys, you can press Ctrl+Esc to simulate the Windows key. This allows you to use the usual Windows+[character] comma...

Hi guys, Thanks for your replies. Sorry for the delay; for some reason, I didn't get email notification. I just though I'd check here. Which version of Classic Shell are you using?

Wow, you can resize the Settings window. I didn't even try that, as most dialog boxes are fixed (unresizable). That helps—thanks!

So in such cases, is a 3rd (maybe even a 4th?) tab row created to make room for all those names?

Hi, Classic Shell has many settings, in many categories. In your Settings window, you've placed the category tabs in horizontal rows at the top. When you click a tab in the upper row, it's moved to the lower row (foreground), which causes all the other tabs to be "scrambled" to other place...

Classic Shell is fabulous—it makes Windows 8 usable . Thanks very much for it! I've noticed just one thing that may be a bug, or at least an oversight. It happens when you've set Controls > "Hover opens: Classic Start Menu". When you move the mouse pointer to the lower left corner, the Sta...
