[Objectdock Plus] [Fixed] Loads twice at startup + Start menu docklet crash

September 13, 2008 3:19:48 AM from Stardock ForumsStardock Forums

Hello everyone !

I'm using Objectdock plus 1.90plus build 535u on Windows Vista premium.

Here are a couple problems I'm facing, so I was wondering if anyone had these issues... I did use the board's search function .

1) OD+ loads twice at startup when the "Load at startup" box is checked, and doesn't load at all when I uncheck it : it's either twice (there are two Objectdock icons in the system tray) or not at all.... I have to shut down one of the two objectdocks loading up every time... Not life threatening, but pretty annoying, heh. I tried adding a shortcut manually to the startup menu, but it still loads twice.

2) Sometimes, after a while, the "start menu" docklet gives me the "unable to find the start menu to show, sorry mate, kthxbi" error. Is there anything that can be done to prevent this ?

Cheers, people !

 

U.

Ok, through the OD+ settings, uncheck Load At Startup.

Then, go to your Startup folder, and see how many OD+ shortcuts you have. I bet it's only one. If there's more than one, delete the others.

You can't check Load at Startup and have an OD+ shortcut at the same time or else you'll get two dock startups.

Secodnly, download and install Ccleaner and open the application. Click on "Tools" > "Startup" and verify how many OD+ links you really have. Delete the extras, clean your registry, and reboot to confirm.

 

Problem 2: If you're having trouble with the default Start Menu docklet, then download the alternative Start Menu Docklet.

Extract the .zip file to your ObjectDock\Docklets folder and right click on your dock >  Add>  and select the newly installed docklet.

If this docklet doesn't work either, there's some issue I can't comprehend either

Only one Objectdock loading at startup and I can't get the Start menu 2 docklet to crash despite clicking it like crazy.

 

Cheers Pixeleo ! Much appreciated.
