Theme doesn't load on reboot

I have the Objectdock+ installed. Whenever I have to reboot my PC, when OD+ loads it loads with another theme other than the one I created (It's not even the default theme). I have to manually load my saved theme (luckily I save my theme every time I add/delete an icon from a tab).

Does anyone knows how to correct this so it loads my theme automatically?

Thanks.........Alex

Janly,

You might try unloading ObjectDock+ > clear cache > restart ObjectDock+ > reload theme > save theme.

To clear cache, open to "My Computer" > go to "Tools > Folder Options > View tab" and select "Show hidden files and folders", then click "Apply".

Now go to "C:\Documents and Settings\"user account"\Local Settings\Application Data\Stardock" folder (where "C" is the letter drive, and "user account" is the name on the account when logged in), and delete the "ObjectDockPlus" folder.

Restart ObjectDock+, this should start the default theme. Load your saved theme, then resave the theme to write it to cache.

That should do it, unless there is something else going on.

Note - you will want to have all the images for your theme stored in the "C\Program Files\Stardock\ObjectDock" folder - either in the "Images" folder, or in a folder of your making.

I hope this helps.

Thanks for the info. However, I tried it and still doesn't do it. Additionally, now, after deleting those file, some of my icons are not showing correctly.

Not sure, if this is the reason, or it just was the catalist for another problem, as I had also installed the latest version of Icon Packager. I did the Cache rebuild, with no success.

Guess, I'm getting close to having to re-install everything from start.

Thanks for your help.

Me Again,

After I wrote the previous comment, I decided to check on comments about IP. Sure enough, the problem was the beta version of IP that caused my icons to disappear. I reverted to the last full version and got my icons back.

That leaves me with my original problem of OD+ not loading my them automatically.

Thanks...........Alex

Actually, I have another question. More like a comment. I have the OD+ full version. It would be nice if I could lock the icons so as not to delete them by mistake. Sometimes my mouse acts up and when I try to click on an icon in the OD, it moves it out of place and sometimes even deletes it, as it's as easy as just dragging them out of the tab.

I saw a comment previously that the free version has this type of option. If it's so, I'm wondering why wasn't it included in the paid version?
