  1. How to update the version of our custom shell


    I am running a custom shell as if it was a kiosk system, but I need to be able to update the software version remotely using AWS SSM. I would like it to occur as seamlessly as possible, without the anyone at the remote site aware that an update has just occurred.I cannot install over the top, as it is still running and some libraries are not updated. I cannot uninstall it, because it is the custom shell. I can't stop the process because it will just restart.What is the process for installing a new version of my custom shell?

    :)

    hi lakshmangiri, it seems that the path you defined in custom shell is not accurate or the applicaiton is not present at path defined in custom shell . Now you can do one thing.

    Boot the system in safe mode . Then Click Troubleshoot -> Advance settings ->startup settings->restart

    Your computer will restart and present a list of different startup options

    press the number 6 key to enter Safe Mode without Command Prompt

    Command Prompt will we be appears type explorer and press enter key Desktop will be show in safe mode

    Then make a Tool for set explorer.exe in custom shell and copy that Tool in PC. set the explorer.exe in custom shell with the help of Tool. After successfully set custom shell restart or shutdown PC and on next reboot start in normal

    1809 Update Queries

    For those who updated please advise:
    1. Does the Classic Shell v4.3.1 still work as some have suggested? If not what version of Open Shell is most suitable?
    2. Does the update create another recovery partition?
    3. Can anyone running MS Money confirm it still works in this update?
