That only fixes the start menu or about one fourth of the problem. All Classic Shell does is make the Start Menu look like XP or 7. But still if you click on Documents, Video, etc it puts you into a Window called This PC. The Commands & general layout stink, are hard to decipher what is what, have them hid here there and everywhere and the Font is hard to see. Normal what used to be right click fast commands are gone. Even burning a disk takes the W-8 hide and seek peek a boo game.

Worse is the deliberately made it much harder to close programs like their X Box Music. Find the darn X to close it. The settings for various system functions are here, there, everywhere with no rhyme or reason except to make some people think moving command locations is a stinking upgrade. W-8 is Crapware. It is the worst OS Windows or likely anyone else has created.

MS proved with XP they could build a decent and reliable. The same with 7. But when Microcrap screws up big time they never ever own up to it. This is their worst screw up as far as PS OS goes.

Unless you like looking in this corner, that corner, or where ever all the time searching for things that were once easy to find Windows 8 Stinks. Some may get off on that thrill I don't.

With the IE I've had more crashes of IE in a day than XP in several months. Yea it's just wonderful. I also enjoy the few minutes it finally quits writing to CLOUD etc so then I finally get my turn using the computer.

Have you noticed the links in Win8 / IE don’t open?

Click on a hotlink and nothing happens. You have to right click and “open in a new tab” or “Open in a new window”
