Need help start DesktopX after boot Auto load Theme

from Stardock Forums
Hey folks; I am having trouble after installing DesktopX and Checking it to use the Builder and also checking to load at start-Up isn't working! I have a theme loaded saved and then restart the system and DesktopX and my theme isn't there. Can anyone give me any ideas why this is happening. I just want it to load at Windows startup and be there? Thanks for any help....Automan

no, the DTX cache - find Corky O's WC site - he has a tutorial on clearing the cache

Bichur;

I have found and used the Corky O's Clearing the Cache 101 and set the DesktopX builder to start with windows and it won't do it. Windows just starts. If i put a start version of DesktopX in the Start area it starts in the normal run mode and you have to switch back.

Is there some kind of registry setting to get it to run automatically?

Thanks

That I don't know. Checking the box to run always worked for me.

Hi Folks; Automan here again. Tried the clear Cache and it still with thee box checked didn't start. I had to take and clear it all and then place my DesktopX Config file in in Windows start section and it starts fine. I really wish stardock would jump in here and tell me the registry section to hit and make it run. If anyone has any other ideas please let me know. I even tried to uninstall and then restart after clearing everything then re-installing and checking the box again.??? Automan
