Desktop X latest update

Monday, August 30, 2004 by Jimi King | Discussion: Stardock Software

I downloaded Desktop X V2 the other day and Icon X seems to be missing from it. I had to go back to V1 to get all my desktop icons the way I like them. Is this supposed to be?

IconX is now a seperate program from DesktopX. If you install IconX it'll get integrated into DesktopX 2.2's config panel as before.

I just read that in another thread, which said that IconX is available through Stardock Central. I can't see it listed anywhere.

That I haven't a clue about. It shows up for me and I installed it fine. Sorry.

Not in mine it isn't. IconPackager, IconDeveloper, but no IconX.

Try going to the Tools menu in Stardock Central and selecting "Check for Application Updates". Maybe that'll freshen up things and IconX will show.

Thanks. I tried that but no help. I've got auto update on anyway. Which must be working fine as I get prompted for DesktopX 2.2 and Windowblinds 4.39 every time I fire up Stardock Central.

Have you tried beating your monitor with a stick? I find that five or six good whacks sometimes gets it to play nicer.

In SDC....Go to the View menu > Show/Hide Applications, and make sure IconX is set to appear in your list.

Make sure at the bottom of Stardock Central window that you have view betas checked on. I think!?!

If you mean "Show Pre-relese versions", yes that's checked. SC even updated itself when I just fired it up. I got quite excited, thinking "this will do it. BUT sadly still no IconX.

Here's a screen grab, just to prove I'm not yanking everyone's chain...
