Handy Launcher ver 1.5

joelw135 · 07-24-04, 08:18 PM

I purchased Handy Launcher 1.5 and Handy Menu, Handy Menu works fine, no problems. Handy Launcher does not load on system restart. I have it installed on my SD Card, and I have the check Box in the opptions screen checked to load on start. When I reset I get an error that Handy Launcher or one of it's components can't be found. The Handy Launcher lnk file is in Windows startup folder. This seems to be similar to the problem that we had with MemMaid. Please help.

P.S. I have tried to install on main memory with the same error.

Have you tried installing it into Main Memory? Possibly it's not designed to be installed to the SD card. I don't believe it takes up that much space. Could be one of those apps that needs to be in main mem?

As my post said I tried main memory and that didn't work either. The application is designed to be installed on a memory card or main memory. Even the advertisement for it tells you to install on SD Card.

All StartUp programs need to be on a "fast" memory card.
Some of the new devices boot faster than the external memory card. So by the time the operating system is trying to run the application it's not going to find it as the memory card is not ready yet (for the operating system if the memory card is not ready this means it's not even inserted)

Having said that, looks like you have one of those fast devices ;) or you have a slow memory card.
For your setup it's better to install the applications you to start with the system on the main memory.

The problem you have looks likw that, the shortcut in the start-up folder still points to the old installation directory (on the external card).
So, Please uninstall. and then install again to the main memory.

That is what I did, but I will do it again.

I have tried to reinstall to main memory, the program refuses to install there.
