1. Create a new folder in the "Windows" folder and call it "Sysnative"

2. Copy the program you want to use in ObjectDock (ie. SnippingTool.exe) into the "Sysnative" folder

3. In the Sysnative folder create a shortcut of SnippingTool.exe

4. Cut and paste the shortcut anywhere you want

5. Create a new shortcut in ObjectDock or in the Flyout menu and link to the shortcut you just created

5. Done! It will now work perfectly in ObjectDock



Sysnative is a virtual folder, a special alias, that can be used to access the 64-bit System32 folder from a 32-bit application or script.

If you for example specify this folder path in your application's source code: C:\Windows\Sysnative the following folder path is actually used:
C:\Windows\System32.

This could be the same issue I have where 2.20 tries to run from 32 bit program files instead of 64 bit...
