Hi all! I am currently researching the deployment of ClassicShell to several computers in my organization primarily for the Classic Start Menu feature. I have read through the admin guide and discovered how to control the user experience via registry settings, but the tweaks required are taking some time to discover.

Is there a reference or list of all the possible user configurable registry settings?


This would make the job quite a bit easier.

Thanks!

The latest version 4.0.4 ships with ADMX files that you can install. They contain all of the settings. You can either use the gpedit.msc tool to edit the settings, or look at the source of the ADMX file and reverse-engineer the names for all registry values.

You could use SysInternals Procmon for monitoring the registry. Procmon can filter by process so it will be easier to follow the values the UI changes.
