Hi,
XP Home SP2 All Updates
I have a program call DeskPins. (A small free program that allows me to put
pin a window to the top of other windows - quite handy)
When Starting computer, I get and error pop up saying "DeskPins is already
running" (a small rectangular box in middle of screen)
It looks like a standard windows error indicating that the program is
already loaded and the same program is trying to start again.
I uninstalled deskpins and remove all instances from the registry.
Then I reinstalled.
Still the same problem.
Is there another location I should look for a startup program.
In msconfig it is in startup and common startup (which looks normal - other
programs are setup the same way)
DeskPins works fine and I have it on another computer without any problems.
Thanks, Duane |

Deskpin could have placed a "shortcut: into the "Startup" folder in
yout user(s) account or the AllUsers one. |

Click on Start then All Programs. Navigate to the Startup folder and check
if there is an entry there for Deskpins, if there is delete it

I had already tried that, but I tried it again.
I deleted it from the startup folder. It did not start at all on startup. I
could still start it manually. I reinstalled a shortcut in the startup folder
and it started when windows started, but still had the error pop up saying it
was already running.
I checked for it in other startup folders, but there are none.
