Classic Shell: Forum

I am some issues with seeing the classic explorer. I have went through all the suggestions in the FAQ but I am still seeing this. What can I do? Thanks in advance.

Seems fine to me. The Classic Explorer toolbar is there in the top right corner.

Classic Explorer is an Explorer add-on that makes changes to Explorer. It is not a standalone app and doesn't replace Windows Explorer.

Hi, newbie here and this looked a good place to add my query. I had to reformat my Windows 7 laptop recently and after reinstalling ClassicShell (version 3.6.6.0) I cannot find the setting that will make the file attributes bar remain visible along the top in windows explorer no matter what icon size view I am using. Here is what I am trying to get...see this link > https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/251 ... ibutes.jpg
Before, when I was in any folder I was able to see this attributes bar at top whether the icon view was set at small icons, large icons, etc. Now I can only see the attributes bar when files are set in the 'Details' view and as soon as I change the view to large icons or list view etc then the attributes bar disappears. Thanks for any help with this.

@Ziva, Open Classic Explorer settings. In the search box of the settings window, type: sort. Check the option "Show sort headers in all views".

Thank you so much, got it sorted. I couldn't find a 'search box in a settings window' but found a tab called "File Pane" and was able to put tick at 'Show sort headers in all views'. Maybe I am still on an older version of program. All ok now anyway, thanks again!

The search box for the settings was added in Classic Shell 4. It is highly recommended that you upgrade. You can download the latest version here: http://www.classicshell.net/downloads/latest Your settings will be preserved.
