Very lame question BUT:
Installed CS on windows 8.1. After installation I see no shortcut or other access to the newly installed program.
Should I see a shortcut on Desktop to access CS?

Going to the installed directory: C:\Program files\Classic Shell
I see a bewildering array of *.exe files... .. OK, I give - Uncle... now how do I start the program?

Press the Start button (Windows button) and you should be prompted to choose a style of the Start menu. In that same window, you can configure the Classic Start Menu's settings. You can configure settings for Classic Start Menu, Classic Explorer or Classic IE from Start button -> All Programs -> Classic Shell.

If after clicking the Start button, you were not shown a menu or choice of selecting a style for the menu, launch the Start Menu manually by double clicking C:\Program Files\Classic Shell\ClassicStartMenu.exe.
