DesktopX and components: further commentary

Wednesday, July 7, 2004 by TroxxellX | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk

Iwasn`t really interested in baiting anyone around here but I did want to express a certain disatisfaction with these stardock apps. As I tried to articulate before, I found that DesktopX had to be running in order for it to mantain the whatever it has applied. StyleXP does not have to be running. After making changes to my desktop, I found after restarting that I would get my old desktop back for a few seconds until DesktopX kicked in. StyleXP`s changes are quite independent of it being running or not.

That's because desktopX is a program and styleXP is a registry hack.

Did you know that Windows also has to be running for it to maintain what it has applied?
