GeoShell (too: Geoshell, geOShell, etc.) occurs as replacement casing for Microsoft Windows intended to replace a default Explorer interface. It features geoBars that may be drag-and-dropped anywhere. GeoShell may be interacted besides by desktop menus that can be triggered when the user clicks anywhere on the desktop, & spherical keyboard crosscut. It as well has plugins that other developers produce to add functionality, & skins to change a appearance. Virtually all settings come configured by directly editing a Windows registry, although more recent versions of GeoShell have a configuration utility, GeoConfig, which might help users around configuring GeoShell while forgoing manually editing registry entries.

GeoShell competes by having more software package, in the main LiteStep, in the explorer shell replacement genre.

History
A original code was freed under a GPL by author Geoffrey Elliott ("geO"), circa 2000. It competed in the explorer plate replacement market, which was principally dominated by LiteStep. GeoShell utilizes Windows register instead of plaintext files for its settings, works forswearing the skin, & seeable objects may be re-resettled by drag-and-drop. Geoeggshell was originally advertised as a minimalist shell replacement due to its simpler configuration, & resources usage.

By using a Little joe.10 series, Geoshell began to trend lines other graphic results including skinning and alpha transparency for Windows 200& XP.

WinShellEx
WinShellEx occurs as component of GeoShell that was introduced in the Tetrad.Eleven.Tenner Beta, which functions to monitor casing activities. Primarily, & virtually all perceptibly to a user, WinShellEx restarts the casing whenever it has been unexpectedly stopped for whatever cause. Extra distinctly, even so, WinShellEx will bring that GeoShell just can't exist as rerun above Explorer--basically meaning just 1 plate may rerun at any in one case. WinShellEx likewise will bring body tray services to GeoShell, fixing bugs that existed by having a formulas tray icons/plugin of former versions. WinShellEx was likewise developed by having a hope that more cases would let it run for the above purposes.
