Classic Shell: Forum

Hello,

Im using Classic Shell on a Windows Server 2012 R2 with XenApp 7.X
I configured all the settings via GPO and its working fine (disabled all the metro stuff)
But I noticed an annoying bug. When I'm pressing "Win+L" you will always get to the metro screen.
Result: The user is unlocking the Desktop he needs to press Win+D to get to the desktop again.
Thats only happening when Classic Shell is installed.

How can I fix this? Im searching for a solution since hours
(Tried with Version 4.25c and 4.27)

Found this thread (same phenomenon) but no solution

I believe you but unless the problem can be reproduced, it can't be fixed. Obviously there must be something to trigger it. Maybe it's Windows Server 2012 R2 or XenApp or some other app.

I am a Windows enthusiast and helped a little with Classic Shell's testing and usability/UX feedback.

After modifying a lot of registry keys (useless) I finally found the solution.
You need to set the control action "Shift+Win opens" --> Nothing



Hope this hint saves you some stressfull hours.

Question for the devs: Since when is the hotkey Windows + L equal to Shift + Win?
