Hello,

I've been using classicshell for years, and absolutely love it, but this time around post install on a new pc build, it's acting a little... odd.

I initially installed it via ninite, which is not how I usually would and saw this strange behavior there, then promptly uninstalled, downloaded the installer from the classicshell site, and installed again, with no change.

My expected behavior when typing into the search box is the one shown on the second picture of this post, where the results pop up above teh search box, but what I'm actually seeing is:



Is this the new normal, or is something out of whack? How do I get the old search back?

Thanks!

Open Classic Start Menu Settings and go to Start Menu Style tab. Choose Windows 7 style. You probably set Classic with two columns.
