What DX parts are you talking about? If it's this it's always been there

Probably mean this:
That DX option also shows up when you r-click in any explorer window. Though I'm not having any major problems, I don't think the option should be in the explorer r-click menus; it serves no purpose there.

Correct, the right click frozen explorer thing isn't happening on the rig that does not yet have desktopX on it, but it does happen on both 7 and Vista on the rig that does have DesktopX installed.

I tried the fix and I'm still getting the same error when I start up. When I ran it, it indicated the registry entry was there and I let it overwrite it. I downloaded the .dll and let it overwrite the file that was already there. It accomplished nada. Something else must be going on. I've really got to stop installing these betas.

For the record, I'm getting the same error when I try most clock widgets. Not all, but many of them. I have put the file just about everywhere (odbzip.dll I mean). I've run the batch file and made the registry change. HELP!

wtripp if you want to you can try using DTX builder mode to import a few widgets, best to do one at a time. Then export it as an object. Then delete it from your DTX desktop. Do another widget, etc. Then change back to DTX client mode. Then right click on the Builder mode icon in the system tray and exit DTX Buider mode, DTX Client will remain loaded. The objects should then load into client mode by double clicking on them. Don't know how many of them will work that way but I've done it with a few.
Occasionally a widget loaded as an object won't run right - I've seen a couple of them take over the DTX right-click menues, so keep an eye out for that. Also if any of the new objects happen to use the same name references between them and you try to load them at the same time you'll get a conflict error.
Or of course you can wait for the next build or go back to the previous one.
I've also noticed that I'm not getting the error when running gadgets, so that might be an option for you.

I've had to revert to 3.5 in order to do anything at all now.

I wish SD would remove the problematic Update from Impulse until a fixed one can be offered.

I agree...

XPHomeSP3DTXStandard - New Object created as type System/Windows Logoff executes Windows Shutdown Dialog window instead of Logoff Dialog or logoff. (Same as prior version.)

Tab don't work when changing colors. I usually insert the red number, tab, insert blue, tab, etc. Don't work. On 7. I haven't found problems yet on Vista as I'm trying to make 7 my new default OS.

Also, I could've sworn keyboard shortcuts like CTRL+A to select all used to work in various Properites window fields. Now, not so much.
