Restart Explorer after Applying/Undoing Classic Right-Click Advance T…

In general, I've added two lines of code to get the explorer process using 'Get-Process', then passed the process object into 'Stop-Process', Windows will automatically restart explorer, so there's no need to run a new process for explorer.

Note: restarting explorer in the UndoScript might not be necessary, as it works just fine without it, that's according to the tests done by the author of this commit.
