    Get Windows 10 Back After Running OpenShell


    I ran OpenShell, which changes Windows 10 to look more like Windows Classic or XP. I did not realize that it changed a million things. I thought it just changed the appearance of the Start menu. If it is possible to run it and have it change ONLY the start menu, I would like to do that, but don't know how.

    How do I undo the changes?

    Also, I find the Win 10 Start menu completely un-useful. How can I get something that is like the XP start menu. I could find the things I needed there. There are many other tweaks I would like to make as well, I am finding Win 10 very difficult to use. What is useful--like Recent Documents--seems to have been removed.

    But the main thing is, I need to get rid of changes OpenShell has made. Thank you.

    :)

    Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

    Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

    • Open a new Explorer window.
    • Click View in the ribbon.
    • Click Options.
    • Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
    • Click OK
