Classic Shell is no longer being maintained - afraid you are out of luck and will have to look elsewhere if yours doesn't work. See this thread:

| Thank you again! On a lark, I installed free trial of Stardock's Start 10 menu - interesting, but can't compare to Classic Start! Will be sending another donation to you via PayPal, the amount it would have cost to install Start 10. |

Thanks for your response and your efforts - that deserves a donation, Ivo! 
Note: for others wondering about this - I received a reply from a member of Windows 8 Forums who has already installed 8.1.1 and Classic Shell works just fine with the update - so, no worry either way. |

| Will the update (8.1.1) coming in April be handled the same way that 8.1 was handled? I am hoping Classic Shell will work after the update, as I have become dependent on it - it's just considered a part of Windows to me. Appreciate any input to relieve my mind. Thanks. |
