I mean my screenshot is as close to the menu in your picture as classic shell can get (without a lot of work), the only way to get the actual menu in your picture is with a really old version of windows..
You can see the differences below:

You must have loaded the wrong file, make sure to load the one that says "MenuSetting(First).xml" attached to the post above

the start button will need to manually be changed after you load the file

It appears they are slightly different. Its unlikely you'll ever get the color exactly like the other menu, but that's fine. Just pick the color that you like and use that.
