Classic Shell: Forum

Hello!

I've upgraded my laptop from Windows 8.1 to Windows 10 (Home version) and then tried to run ClassicShellSetup_4_2_4.exe (but I've deinstall Classic Shell on Windows 8.1 befere upgrading...).

Unfortunately, ClassicShellSetup_4_2_4.exe didn't run at all... No error messages, no instalaltion...

What is probably the matter? Would you like to help me, please!

Ok so what exactly does happen when you run the installer? If you uninstalled the old version before the upgrade, and then re-installed 4.2.4 post-upgrade everything SHOULD run smoothly.. have you let windows 10 update fully? have you tried running the installer as admin? do you get a prompt asking you to allow it? and is there a classic shell related process in task manager at all?

Otherwise IVO will likely respond later with more solutions/troubleshooting

Thank you for your answer!



Apparantly, nothing happens after running the Classic Shell installer (and I run it as administrator.)... No Classic Shell process was running during the installation.

Windows 10 upgrade was successfull. At least, I didn't notoced any troubles during and after upgrading.

You should not run the installer as administrator. It will ask for elevation when it needs it.
You can use the /l* setting to create a log file as described here: http://www.classicshell.net/faq/#install_commands

Thank you very much!

I'll try to use it and report about the results.

I tried to run setup with /l log.txt option.

Unfortunately, no log file, no setup...

What may be the case?

Everything is ok now! That was DrWeb antivirus that was blocking installation all the time...
