Reply to SOLVED -- Windows 7 hide empty drive icons not working in Windows Discussion WinCustomize Forums

That's it Jim! Thanks. I had turned on the show hidden files and folders option just recently to track down a setting and then left it selected. Funny, no one in any of the forums I searched suggested that. Wincustomize is king (lowercase)!

SOLVED -- Windows 7 hide empty drive icons not working in Windows Discussion WinCustomize Forums

I don't know what changed, but suddenly I am seeing all the empty drive letters from my multi-card reader. The option to hide them is checked, the shell hardware detection service is running, but now I have all the extra drive letters I don't want to see. I even have a network location entry for a desktop.ini configuration file showing in the Explorer computer window. Any ideas? Google has failed me. <img src="http://web.stardock.net/images/smiles/them

The Stardock programs I use are Fences, WindowBlinds, Tiles, ObjectDoick, WindowsFX and CursorFX. Good they're making progress on W10 compatibility. I have not yet received my free upgrade but I will hold off when it comes until the rest of my standard programs work.

I have a 2010 model Sony Alpha 580 with a Tamron 18-200 lens and a Sony 18-55. Sony bought their image technology from Konica-Minolta. I upgraded from my original KM DSLR. I love tech but hate spending money for no reason or I would have upgrade to the 7 series. At some poiunt I will but I'm happy with the model I have. Nice photos! Don't be afraid of RAW. All RAW images need a certain amount of post processing to look their best but you hav

Reply to Norton update creates havoc! in Object Desktop WinCustomize Forums

It quarantined 54 files before I stopped it and then had to restore each file one at a time. To make things worse, it doesn't tell you what file you're restoring until after it's been restored. Shouldn't that have been listed up front with the virus it supposedly contained? Norton support told me to download an update,which, hilariously, NIS flagged as a trojan.

Did you inadvertently lock Fences? Right-click on the desktop, choose View and see if Lock Fences has a check next to it.

Reply to Fences Shape Idea in Fences WinCustomize Forums

I think it could be done, with fences designed as in a construction program. Instead of a rectangle having four vertices, it could have six or eight, any of which can be pulled in coordination with at least one other to create a bulge like an "L". Doing it directly on the desktop might be a problem. A construction program that defines the fences and places them on the desktop might be necessary.

Try this. Edit CurrentTheme.ini in this folder: C:\Users\ \AppData\Local\Stardock\ObjectDockPlus, where is your actual username. See if you can locate the rogue icon within the others and manually delete the entry. For example, here's my icon for Internet Explorere: [Item(1-11)] Type=Shortcut Target=C:\Program Files (x86)\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe RunVisibility=5 UsePopup=0 IconManuallySet=1<br

SOLVED: Some WindowBlinds don't display buttons in WindowBlinds WinCustomize Forums

Windows 7 64 bit running WB 8.09. Is there a solution to the problem of some blinds not displaying their min/max/close buttons? GoldOldDays and MacSimulated are two blinds that display the problem. The other blinds I've been using work properly. I beleive it's a known bug. I have no yet submitted a ticket.
