| Ever since Windows 10 made the OS less customizable and a pain to use, Ivo has lost interest in actively developing it due to other important projects and I have lost interest in testing it on Windows 10 so Classic Shell is in maintenance mode. New features and new releases will be very slow or unl... |

| So far I have enjoyed the Classic Shelle start menu replacement since Windows 8 / Server 2012 and would be sad to let it go: It's deployable (MSI), customizable, likable, usable and a lot more! But the recent Windows 10 (1703) issues it seems like we have to make a new decision. Having explorer.exe ... |

| Just a little update from my busy schedule: We just deployed 25 Windows 10 computers. 8 Intel NUC (older/reinstalled) and 17 new Lenovo. The issue seems to be unrelated to brand/sound card. I happens perhaps once per hour +/- with our normal workload. Thread count is 800+ when it happens and restart... |

| PS: I know this is a free tool (unless we donate), so I have not expectations or requirements for support/fix. I would however be nice to know if somebody is looking in to this issue from a developer side of things. I would love to continue using ClassicShell, but if no solution is "around the ... |

| Hi all, Sorry for the delay - things are busy here. Today I did test another PC (Intel NUC). This does not have the RealTek HD Audio sound card. 100% same experience: After Classic Shell was installed Windows became unresponsive after approx 30 minutes. As soon as explorer.exe was restarted things w... |

Interesting.
Perhaps we can exclude the sound driver assumption if you can confirm your Server 2016 does not have a sound card? |

| Thx. I will try to dig into the issue next week. Plan: * Install CS 4.3.1 with start menu feature only (this is actually all we need) and verify problem is still present. * When problem occurs check number of threads for Explorer. * Test renaming/uninstalling Realtek sound driver. * Report back to t... |

| Has this issue been narrowed down to the Start menu component? Have you tried installing only the Start menu and omitting Classic Explorer and IE components? Just did some tests: Installed Classic Shell with only the Classic Explorer feature. The threads stay low. Installed Classic Shell with only ... |

| We just deployed a few Windows 10 PC's (Dell 3050). Windows is version 1703 + CU from 2017-08-10. Classic shell was installed by extracting the MSI file from the installer and deploying it with a GPO. We have done the same for all our Server 2012 with version 4.3.0 (now being updated to 4.3.1 by rem... |
