Shortcuts disappear when i quit dexpot

Postby Kar-Chee » 31.08.2011 13:51:02

Hello
I installed Dexpot. Set everything and it works like a charm. But when i close Dexpot there is nothing on my desktop. When i browse to desktop via explorer, everything is there. But it is not visible on my desktop. The same thins is after restart. I now have to have Dexpot running to see anything.

Do you use the icon customization feature?

Hm. Try this: Exit Dexpot. Right-click the desktop and enable the "Auto arrange icons" option. Start Dexpot. Switch desktops. Exit Dexpot. Do the icons still disappear?

It worked. Thank you very much.
You should add it to some faq or guide. It scared me as at first i thought that it deleted all the things on my desktop...
