Dissapearing docks

January 19, 2009 3:55:10 PM from WinCustomize ForumsWinCustomize Forums

Hello,

 

I've recently had 3 of my docks that simply dissapeared. After a random reboot (meaning, not after a system crash or an ObjectDock crash), 3 out of 4 docks vanished. They don't even show up in "My Docks" anymore. The only one that didn't dissapear is the bottom dock. I'd like to know what happened. Is there a way to get them back or do I really have to create them all over again? (uhg, that would be a real pain)

 

There must be a place where ObjectDock stores dock information, like an .ini file or something, where I could probably get my old dock info.

 

Thanks for your help.

Uhm... so no one will even answer me? I did some digging and found some INI files that seem to contain dock information but I haven't been able to successfuly edit them yet.

 

I cannot believe I'm the only who this has happened to. Please help me out!

 

Thanks.

I don't know much about this particular problem buddy, but usually IF a dock vanishes, and it's set to load at startup, it 'should' reappear.. I guess it hasn't?

I'd get them the way you want them, and make sure they are set to load at startup, then do a test reboot to see if it takes? beyond that, I can't help you, hopefully someone who has had more to do with this problem than I have, can help you further, and good luck

Yeah, my docks were always set to load at startup. Like I said, I had 4 docks and they all worked fine until last week when, after booting up my pc, 3 docks had dissapeared. The only one still showing up is the bottom dock and the others don't even show up in "my docks" anymore... it's as if they never existed.
