Classic Shell Utility

The Classic Shell Utility can assist you in troubleshooting problems with the Classic Shell software. Download it from here: http://www.mediafire.com/download/3ukeryzw41qpfz8/ClassicShellUtility.exe
It can perform multiple functions.

Save system log

The tool will collect information about your system to help with troubleshooting. Save the file and attach it in a forum post that describes your problem.

For best results:
  • Run the tool using the same account that is causing problems. Do not run as administrator.
  • The tool may ask for administrative credentials if necessary. If you choose not to provide them, the tool will still work but will collect less information.
  • Some of the collected information may be sensitive (like what applications you have installed). If you wish to keep that information confidential, you can either upload the file to the FileDrop folder (see below), or archive it with a password, attach the archive in the forums and send a PM with the password to the user Ivo.

Remove Classic Shell

The tool will attempt to manually remove the Classic Shell software from your system. Use it in case you are having problems uninstalling using the conventional methods. It is designed to work even after a failed attempt to uninstall the software when some of the registry may be corrupted or some of the files may be missing.

For best results:
  • Close all other programs
  • Sign out all other accounts
  • Read all the instructions carefully
  • Restart your computer after the tool completes

Show Metro colors

The tool will display the Windows start screen color palette. This is useful for people trying to create skins for Windows 8, 8.1 and 10.

Important: Please enter a description for the file - who is it from and what is it for. Or post a message in the forums. Otherwise I have no way of knowing what to do with it.
