Classic Shell causing problems with Windows 8

The Lenovo X220 Core i7 notebook my kid has would not let him login as a standard user.  After some fruitless searches about Windows All user install agent, I decided to uninstall Classic Shell.  After a reboot, his account was now able to be logged in.  I had installed Classic Shell to make the Windows 8 look more like standard Windows with a Start Button.  Oh well, back to plain new Windows 8.

  1. What makes you say it was Classic Shell? Millions use it without issues. All it insert is the Start Menu, it doesn't do anything to affect user accounts. Maybe the reboot fixed whatever the issue was.
