Hi guys, I upgraded my pc today from Win 8.1 to Win 10 with keeping all my apps and settings. Classic Start Menü didn't work with Win 10, I uninstalled it and installed the new version 4.2.5, worked fine. I put in Skin folder five Win 7 style skins which I already have in pc, closed and reopened the app but aforementioned 5 Win 7 style skins didn't appear in Start Menu skin settings.

Any solution?..

If the menu skins do not appear after copying them into the \Program Files\Classic Shell\Skins folder, you may be using the wrong STYLE of the menu. *.Skin7 files means to use them, you must switch to the Windows 7 style. If the extension is just *.skin, then you must use the "Classic" or "Classic with two columns" style.

You can switch the style from the first tab in Settings.
