Greetings. I have just installed ClassicShell and really like it. However, I noticed now there is a "ClassicStartMenu.exe" process running all the time. Does this NEED to always be running for ClassicShell to work? or, can it be safely disabled from being Started Up in msconfig? |

ClassicStartMenu.exe serves few different purposes. First, it is the process that injects the start menu inside Explorer. Second, it monitors Explorer and restarts the start menu if Explorer is restarted. And third, it is used for launching setting, and for launching elevated commands. So yeah, while technically you can remove it after the start menu is created, but then if Explorer crashes you will lose the start menu. |

So, if its not running, I will still have my customized Start Menu and Explorer settings?, even on reboot? or is it needed to start everything up? I just dislike having extra processes running, if there not really needed. |

No, it is essential to the work of the start menu. |
