Hi. First, I would like to congratulate on amazing program. It is excellently made.
I use only Start menu part of it and do not need other parts. How to install Classic Shell for standard user to %appdata% directory if only Start menu is selected during install? (I presume installing other shell extension dlls is why it requires admin permissions?)
Ever since Windows 7, Microsoft encourages standard user software installation. Windows Installer 5.0 has features to make the same package for standard user and all users (admin):
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/windows_install ... ows-7.aspxSome other programs install this way. e.g. Google Chrome, 7 Taskbar Tweaker, StartIsBack. So I want to request feature to install without UAC prompt to C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\ClassicShell. I installed beta version and noticed this directory already exists but it does not contain program files, only some logs and database files.
Classic Shell setup should be modified to install for current logged in user without UAC prompt or all users. I also want to request GUI for admin settings. So if I give it CSM -adminsettings it will open settings window with UAC prompt and will modify settings in HKLM. As admin, I prefer settings UI to reg editing as it is hard to understand reg values.
I thought that because Classic Shell supported Vista, per user installs were not supported as Vista shell does not have per user extensibility points. New version beta which is only for Windows 7 and up is good opportunity to change this if only Start menu is installed.
