| . . . Windows 8/8.1/10 all have hybrid shutdown on by default. Classic Shell simply follows the default Windows setting. I don't think it's on by default in Win 10, because: a.) when I shutdown with the Windows "Power" button / re-booted / the Registry setting worked b.) when I un-checked ... |

Ok, thanks
I just start seeing that it works for Win 10, so I think that means that it will stop working for Win 8.1 |

I have Win 8.1, and will pass on Win 10
I just updated CS to: ClassicShellSetup_4_2_4.exe
It looks like CS is now being done for Win 10
Does that mean I no longer need to update CS?
Or, should I just keep updating it, as updates become available? |

I was able to hide "Programs / Search" before. I wonder what happened since then.
The way I have the folders now is a good compromise. |

I just ran:
C:\>dism /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth
and
C:\>sfc /scannow
I did a Restart . . . and Search remains Hidden . . . so, I see that they do not restore the "Hidden" Attribute . . . Yay! |

Is there any reason I shouldn't want to get rid of the Win 8.1 Search, under Programs / Search? How do I do it?
I have the Search box. It has a tab for settings. |
