Impulse options missing
(for Stardock's developpers)
Friday, July 3, 2009 by neophil78 | Discussion: Object Desktop
Ther are two things in Impulse that very boaring
1°) Should it be possible (as it was with SDC) to indicate the path where shorcuts in All Programs menu will be created (sorry but in my case it's not in "C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Menu Démarrer\Programmes\Stardock" but in C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Menu Démarrer\Programmes\Décoration Bureau\Stardock" and it's really anoying to have to chang it manually each time an update or a new install is done
2°) Each time launching Impulse is changing the browser by default. Same way, should it be possible to correct that ?
Thanks in advance

Euh, IE(7) is set to verify if it's still the default browser (well it's the only one 
... apart from the Impulse browser ? )

just to be clear... you're saying once you set the install path in Impulse to where you want, it reverts back to the default after an Impulse update and you have to set it again (and again and again and again, etc)... yes?

Not told
Everyone having IE know what i mean. There's an option to check in IE, to be alerted if IE is still default browser when launching it.
Though, even if i don't get another browser, as i mentioned, each time after having launched Impulse, when i launch IE, i get the message that IE is not anymore the default browser (that's why i think there's a browser in Impulse which is set by default ... as simple as this.)
N.B: BTW 1°) in my initial post is for me more important

If the default browser is changing, it sounds like IE has been set to force itself to be the default browser. Disable that in IE and your default browser should then remain the same.
