Hi Jorge...Really nice update :)

First, I don't know when this started happening, but thank you so much for allowing the installer to recognize where my Winstep installation is on my computer. It may not seem like a big deal, but it is LOL

When I installed the update, I got a warning stating that Active Desktop is active. Since I've *never* had any conflicts with Winstep I just leave it on...I put .jpgs on my desktop.

When I go into the NS configuration, there is a button which says "Enable Active Desktop."

Since Active Desktop is on, shouldn't that button give me the option to dis-able it? I would like to be able to turn if off if I want.

Gotta get playing with the new update :)

Thanks,
David

Have fun! :D

Anyway, Active Desktop is evil. It can do bad, bad things to Windows customization programs (ANY Windows customization program). :wink:

Hmmm, just run NextSTART again and this time let it disable Active Desktop, hehe. It might require a reboot, to 'stick' though.
