I've just downloaded and installed the latest "stable" version.

When I click on start now the classic shell flashes up for a second
and then disappears before I can select an action.

How can I uninstall it when I can't access my control panel?

Press Control+Shift+Esc and kill its process. Then access default start menu.

Killing the ClassicStartMenu.exe process will not do anything.

You can uninstall Classic Shell by running the installer again and selecting Remove.
Or press Win+X and choose Programs and Features (should be the top item). Then double-click on Classic Shell.

The stable version 4.2.1 was built for older versions of Windows 10. Since then Windows 10 has changes substantially and some features are no longer compatible. You should use the release candidate 4.2.3 instead.
