    I tried to add the My Computer into the menu but it's just not working. Here is my StartMenuItems.ini


    ; MAIN_MENU.Items - the structure of the main menu. You can add or remove items here
    MAIN_MENU.Items=COLUMN_PADDING, PROGRAMS, COLUMN_BREAK, FAVORITES, DOCUMENTS, SettingsMenu, SearchMenu, HelpItem, RunItem, SEPARATOR, LogOffItem, UndockItem, MyComputerItem, DisconnectItem, ShutdownItem

    ;MyComputerItem.Link=::{20D04FE0-3AEA-1069-A2D8-08002B30309D}
    MyComputerItem.Command=::{20D04FE0-3AEA-1069-A2D8-08002B30309D}
    MyComputerItem.Name=$Menu.MyComputer
    MyComputerItem.Icon=shell32.dll,8

    I tried both the link and the command and they didn't work. Is there a way to have My Computer in startup?

    Sorry for the late reply. I was out of town.
    Starting with version 2.8.1 you will have to edit one more setting:
    Code:
     
    EnableCustomMenu=1

    I've only just noticed that my r-click Classic Explorer Bar is greyed out and I can't select it. I can however, access the Explorer Bar settings through the Start Menu shortcut.
    I only went to access it because my Explorer Window Titlebar and icon had disappeared. So I un-installed, cleaned up, re-booted and re-installed. The titlebar tweaks returned
    (and my settings) but the Explorer Bar option is still greyed out.
    Am I missing something simple here?

    EDIT Using version 2.8.3

    Most likely the shell extension is disabled. Try the instructions here: Classic Shell: FAQ

    Another thing is that I cannot right click Computer
    The icon is there and the link works but can't right click it.

    MyComputerItem.Command=::{20D04FE0-3AEA-1069-A2D8-08002B30309D}
    MyComputerItem.Name=Computer
    MyComputerItem.Icon=shell32.dll,16

    Well, command items don't have right-click menus. Instead of .Commmand try .Link=::{.... Then the start menu will understand that you want to create a link to a folder, and you will get the folder's context menu when you right-click.
