Uninstalling OD+, doing a cleanup Seabass suggested and re-installing fixed the issue for me on my XP SP2 machine. Will try on my Vista rig tonight.

I also suddenly lost systray icons in my OD+ (version 1.91k[a].025 as reported by Impulse) on both my Vista Business 32bit and XP Pro SP2 machines. No other system changes, just a restart seems to have broken the functionality. The log file is saying that there was a vailure activating the product. What gives?!?

[quote]I imagine only a person who is a pirate would have a problem with using Impulse. Stop making waves over nothing.Not true. I have Impulse, and I bought Sins of a Solar Empire: Collector's Edition. And I DO have a problem with using Impulse as the exclusive means to deliver patches. And being a customer, I'd like stand-alone patches as an alternative to Impulse.Don't get me wrong, I think Impulse is a very good idea. However, it could also turn out to be horrific for the gaming communit

Having a few issues with the latest beta of OD+ on my 2 machines: On the XP SP2 laptop, the taskbar (which is set to be hidden in the OD settings) sometimes appears and does not go away until I click somewhere on the desktop background. I believe this is happening due to one or more programs updating their status (and icon) in the tray, or trying to display notification baloon tips from the tray, not sure. One such program is SVN No

I've also been looking for Language Bar support for OD+, but so far without results. Would love to see it in form of a docklet.

Oh my... What have I started?!?

[quote]are your running DTX from the start menu or from Impulse or SDC?[/quote] Same error running it from the start menu shortcut or Impulse, haven't tried via SDC yet. I ran the EXE directly from explorer and that loaded the main program, but most options still give me the same "doesn't seem to be installed" error.

Since this forum is not searcheable (get a database error when I try) I need to start a new thread... I'm an OD subscriber and just downloaded and installed (via Impulse) the latest (beta) version of DesktopX on my WinXP SP2 laptop. After a reboot whenever I try to launch the DesktopX I get the following message: "DesktopX does not seem to be installed on current machine..." Is there something that I'm doing wrong here?

You kids with your fancy-shmancy programming languages. In my time we had to use zeroes and ones. And sometimes we'd run out of zeroes, so we had to use the letter "O".

I've been fruitlessly searching for a few docklets that would make my Vista and OD experience much more enjoyable (and even might convince me to upgrade to OD+ ;) ). The first one is the simple Digital Clock docklet. When I hide the Windows Taskbar I lose the clock. Unfortunately my problem with the analog clock docklet is that it's difficult tell time on it without rolling the mouse over it, at least on the screen resolution I'm running. A digital clock would be m

[quote]Let's be straight forward here: In November we announced that we would have DeskScapes 2.0 publicly available in February. We have failed to have a stand alone public version available for a variety of reasons, primarily, the difficulty in dealing with so many different hardware configurations on Vista.[/quote] Thank you, that's all I wanted to hear. P.S. Might want to update the website to say something to that extent instead of having the "Feb 2008" still on it

[quote]Now here's my question.... would you rather SD release the software before it's ready and just let you deal with it, or would you rather wait a little longer to get a program that is actually usable?[/quote] I'd rather they don't give time frames they cannot keep for the sake of some free publicity. About the "buy OD" comment, why would I spend $50 for something that costs $20? ObjectDesktop offers nothing else besides DeskSpaces that I want for my PC. Also, the try-before-you

[quote]In November Stardock announced that there would be a version of Deskscapes for Vista versions other than the Ultimate edition. You youselves have created the anticipation for this product. There is a version of DeskScapes that runs on all versions of Vista available right now. It's on Object Desktop right now. As far as a publicly available free version, we don't have a firm date yet.[/quote] This is off this page: https://www.stardock.com/newsitem.asp?id=1010 [
