Download the Classic Shell Utility from here: http://classicshell.net/downloads/
Run it, select the option to manually uninstall, then select to remove the settings for all users

You probably have copied some third-party skins. After you restart, manually delete the folder C:\Program Files\Classic Shell.

No, the utility should have already done most of the work. It just couldn't delete the folder because there is an extra skin there. Once you delete the folder, the process will be complete.

Why did you switch to StartIsBack when Classic Shell has everything it has and more?

Classic Shell also looks like the authentic menu but you have to pick the right skin. StartIsBack has deviated from its authentic look by introducing glyph icons in the right side column. It looks nice but it's not the exact Windows 7 menu any more. :)
