"Documents" section leads to not only documents.


Start menu is still a WIP and nearly back to what I had before; just need to resort the Programs and Favorites sections and it's back to the way it used to be.

"Settings" section is fully restored as it was before, and yes, all this links back to their respected Control Panel items, native to W10 and the classic ones from W98/2k.


Context menus are now cleaner, with useless clutter removed.

Desktop icons are now at the correct size.

Explorer is still a massive WIP; need to make up some custom icons for the address text (which will replace the big stop button) and a Go button icon, but I'm having difficulty getting Quero to accept them. I'm not touching the computer icon in the status bar, no matter how bad I wish I could.

Spitfirex86: His Reactos taskbar script, and other ahk scripts.

To Do:
- Fix up the Start menu by completing the "Programs" and "Favorites" sections.
- Sort out the Explorer address bar with new icons for "Address" and the Go button.
- Re-install every program I used to have.
EDIT: Had some time, so did the "Send to" folder:

EDIT II: Small tweak to the desktop context menu "new" items:

EDIT IV: Fugly icon next to "Empty Recycle Bin" removed:

Excellent work putting this together.
Which windows colors .reg file are you using in this screenshot?
How are you changing the colors of the explorer toolbar icons to that silver / grey color?
Also would you be able to share your Classic Shell Menu settings using the Backup and Save to XML file option? It would really help me setting it up.
Thank you
