Download Classic Shell 4.0.0

The final release of Classic Shell 4.0 has been released. This open source program can make changes to the appearance of Windows Explorer, Internet Explorer, the start button, and the start menu in Windows 7 and 8. In Windows 8, it can add a start button and start menu, and cause Windows to boot directly to the desktop environment, instead of of the Metro interface.

In addition, it has also become easier to use the program in another language. The program is no longer open source, but it is still free to use.
