v4.0.2

It's not a big deal and it might be nothing to do with Classic Menu but if I right click on the start button I don't get the Win-X menu. Even if I press Win-X I don't get the menu? (and before you ask the setting is checked so that it should work correctly)

Also if I right click on the start button each right click makes the mouse pointer jump in a tiny upwards and to the right diagonal movement until it reaches the edge of the Start button logo and then it won't go any further - very strange!!!

Any ideas?

TIA Steve

Well, if pressing Win+X doesn't open the menu, then your menu must be busted. Maybe you tried to customize it and added an item that fails to initialize, bringing the entire menu down?

It seemed to do it when I created a new user.
The original user is fine but the new users Win-X doesn't work as it should - everything else works fine - OS and Classic Menuwise - very strange?

It may be a bug in Windows. See if you can reproduce it without Classic Shell.

Just thought I'd post that I found a solution...

With Yamicsoft's Windows 8 Manager I used the built in Win-X Menu Editor and used "restore all" command. Now the Win-X menu works AOK either with Right Clicking on the Start Button or Win-X Keyboard Shortcut :-)
