January 14, 2005 9:22:32 AM from WinCustomize ForumsWinCustomize Forums
How do I disable the warning on the DesktopX/ObjectBar startup?

It appear when I came to close my PC without shutdown correctly, or Windows Crash with some reason.

I Like to say NO every time, and I dosent like the warning to appear at time, and cause to delete my whole DestopX a time (wich is unwanted, it can just load fine every time)

Let windows shutdown correctly. I believe you're talking about the warning when DX starts saying...

DesktopX does not appear to have exited correctly. This could be the fault of a corrupt theme or a buggy plugin. Would you like to start with a new, empty theme (Yes) or attempt to load the current theme again (No)?

I usually just hit No, since the theme isn't corrupt, just the way that windows got shut down, shut down DX incorrectly. You can reproduce this warning by going into Windows Task Manager and under the processes tab, end the DesktopX.exe process.

Yes. I forgot to screenshot that, sorry.

I hate that warning. Today I got the warning again, aftar Windows shutdow all applications and restart again, after installing WMP10.

I would like let it automatic say NO every time, so it dosen't delete anything i created. You could instead give a discret warning in few seconds with possible to start a new theme (Why should I do that?)

Now i do not use DesktopX at time, until I can disable that warning....

Well, it sounds like you have a bigger problem than worring about turning off that warning...I'd be wanting to know what making Windows Shut down like it does first? Like Essencay says Windows needs to shut down correctly...AS a matter of fact you should always try to avoid "forcing" Windows to shut down...When it shuts down correctly DX shouldn't give that warning...try being a little patient when Windows is doing it's shut down thing...

What I mean is that if Windows is plannng a reboot...like it does after installing some software, it asks do you want to reboot now or later...when you say now, you need to sit back and let it do it's thing even if it seems to be taking a second or 2, you don't need to then go to the Start panel or task manager and tell it to reboot or shut down...but your best bet in some cases...especially if you have several other things running is to tell it NO that you will do it manualy later...then go unload DX and what not, then reboot it yourself...Then no warning from DX.

And then the best thing to do is unload DX before you reboot your system...also when you've go DX just as you want it, save the theme...then in case this happens again you'll be able to load everything like it was without having to start all over again. Another thing that could help is that you should keep DX in User Mode when not making changes...

I known I should shutdown corretly, but I dosent do it all time, or a application crash XP (with happings sometimes).

A discret warning in the taskbar is a lots better (could be a option), that ask to make a new one if clicked on it.

I dosen't want to start all over again, with it was happens.

Sorry if I writtin bigger problem than it should, Objectbar is a great software, but I did only use it on a little topbar.

Im now look, how the user mode work.

Thanks for the anwear.

You will be much happier when you figure out which startup app is causing you your headaches. Also might want to run a spyware and virus check. In this thread http://essencay.wincustomize.com/articles.aspx?SID=1825&aid=29476&UID=497678 folks show what different programs they use.... a lot of them are free.

Essencay, that was my point...I'd be wanting to figure out why my system is craching before I worry about getting Stardock to make changes to DX...
