After doing the 8.1 Windows upgrade, Classic Shell 4.0 would not load. I had to uninstall and reinstall it to get it to work again. |

Yes, this is a known limitation: http://www.classicshell.net/faq/#general_win81 The problem is that the upgrade wipes out the registry where Classic Shell is installed. So after the upgrade Classic Shell doesn't have the opportunity to run and repair itself. One possible solution is to install a service on Windows 8, whose only job is to detect when the upgrade happens. But that's an overkill. |
