Patching re-adds Start menu items.

Not the most pressing issue...

May 15, 2009 11:21:12 AM from Demigod ForumsDemigod Forums

Just noticed this today. I had deleted the Stardock Games directory from my Start menu the other day (which only contained the Demigod directory with links to the game, readme and something else), and today, after the latest patch, found the directory in-tact in my Start menu once again.

The thing is, I only access the game purely by launching Impulse. As such, I don't want the Demigod game directory cluttering up my Start menu.

This is under Windows Vista Home Premium SP1.

Same for me.  The way the Impulse patching system works is that it checks all the files that are supposed to be there to make sure they are there.  If they aren't, it re-downloads them and replaces the missing / corrupt ones.

The problem of course is when it does this for folders other than the Demigod install folder.  I actually organize my start menu so it's usable and every time I patch I have to delete the Demigod folder from my start menu.
