I use classic shell and have been on win 10 since it came out. On my system that had CS already installed it works fine in the latest pre release 14316.rs1. On a system that did not have CS installed it will not install. The error message pop up says it is not compatible and can cause damage. This is just an FYI as this early release just came out 2 days ago.

Yes someone else also reported this. Thanks for letting us know. Classic Shell will only be updated to work on stable/final builds of Windows 10.

BTW, StartIsBack works fine. I will be using it from now on...no hassles on the Redstone builds.

You can rename the installer to setup.exe and it will let you install it.
There are some known incompatibilities with Redstone though. They will be fixed in the next version of Classic Shell.
