Too many icons in desktop will block your beautiful wallpaper and make your desktop looked messy.

My little contribution to make your desktop clean and launch your application fast and easy.... smile.gif

Received good comments from many oversea software reviewers, Malaysia boleh!

Skinable, portable, customizable...... Hope you enjoy using 8start Launcher....

To draw the icons and create cache, the loading of 8start when u turn on pc is not fast. (only occur when boot up compuer). After 8start loaded, it will create cache and using it, the speed is super fast.

Let me know then so I can improve. smile.gif

Can you do the following step for troubleshooting?
1. uninstall and install again
2. create a group and click apply, see if any error
3. create a shortcut and click apply, see if any error.
4. repeat step 3, until a error found

let me know which path cause the error so I can troubleshooting. blink.gif

the loading speed depends on how many icons you decide to have on it, for a modern computer today such small application shouldn't take more than 5 secs for a fairly sufficient shortcut launcher to load.

the time for me to load for this program is 1 sec(partly due to few icons, but even i double the amount it will not exceed 3 secs).

you should try it yourself and determine whether it is slow for you or not, it won't cost you anything. biggrin.gif

1. right click on the desktop>New>Shortcut, at the link type 'shutdown -s -t 00', have the shortcut placed at any folder.

2. organize your button in 8start to link to the shortcut.

Configuration of your windows is ok.

May I know how to add the button? by 'Organize button' menu or by using 'Windows Explorer'?

Another try is add a button without icon.

This is a really strange problem.. rclxub.gif

Don't worry..just try our best...

Do you mean make it always on top?

I think that make it always on top is not so efficient, will block your working application like excel, word...
freddy manson
well, Always On Top is just an option that u can add on the next version..
because just like winamp, maybe somebody out there wants it to be on top.. (well that's the reason for it, hence the name itself is self-explainatory)..

some people doesnt mind if it block words etc etc.. because I myself use winamp on top when i want to surf the net.. while surveying some thread i prefer to let the winamp window sstays on top.. that's just me tho.. rclxm9.gif
