Windows 10 & Classic Shell

[richbrowncardiff]

Hi Everyone,

 

Using Classic Shell for our start menu and all working except importing of xml when people login. Any idea how I can import settings at login. Have tried importing a .reg file from a configured pc which works as an admin (exit classic shell import reg then run classic shell again) but need the config to load for any user who uses the pc.

 

Any help / advice much appreciated as always.

Classic Shell has admx templates that you can configure. I've not tried configuring it with xml.

Thanks for your help I have setup the Policy's but they don't seem to give me enough control (customising layout etc as you can in the settings of the app itself) have you managed to get it all working well using the policy ?

Isn't that based inside the MenuItems7 reg key?

 

I customised that, and it works well here on 200+ devices.

Create a GPP regedit and it'll work.

We use Computer>Adminastrative templates>classic shell>classic start menu>Menu items for classic menu with one column to configure links outside the programs folder. it is a multiline box that defines all links... from the help in the gpo

Select the menu items to be used by the classic style with one column.

The best way to get the right string is to configure the items in the Classic Start Menu settings dialog and then look up the value named MenuItems1 in HKCU\Software\IvoSoft\ClassicStartMenu\Settings
