Classic Shell 4.0.4 introduces Group Policy support for its own settings. The file, C:\Program Files\Classic Shell\PolicyDefinitions.zip includes the policy definitions. If you have an Active Directory domain, extract the files to %logonserver%\sysvol\%userdnsdomain%\policies\PolicyDefinitions\ or whatever your Group Policy Central Store is. For Local Group Policy, extract them to C:\Windows\PolicyDefinitions folder.


I tried this, attached is one of the error messages I'm getting.
I'm running Windows 8.1 Enterprise 32-bit

Looks like you are missing the corresponding .adml file for the current language (like C:\WindowsPolicyDefinitions\en-US\Classicexplorer.adml)

Thanks, that fixed it. I must have not copied that folder out of the zip.

Now, maybe I'm not find the policy I'd like to find, but is there a way to make Classic Explorer not show its toolbar by default?
Whenever a new user is created and they login, they seem to have that toolbar.

I tried (possibly incorrectly) to export / import the registry settings like I did for the start menu.
It worked for the start menu settings, to bring them into local machine, but didn't seem to do the same for Classic Explorer, in the case of its toolbar.

This is a feature I am considering for the next version.

I figured it out from another topic thankfully, but forgot to update my post. : )
Thankfully the forums here are easy to search. I really appreciate your help.

Starting with Classic Shell 4.2.0 Beta, there is a new GPO setting "No initial showing of the toolbar" to prevent the showing of the toolbar when Explorer is opened for the first time.
