Stop creating a desktop shortcut after update

Anonymous 11 years ago updated by Michael (Ramen Software) 11 years ago 2

I have the Taskbar Tweaker shortcut in my 'Programs' folder and every time I update it, I have to delete the shortcut manually from desktop. It's annoying.

In general, the update uses the same parameter you've set when first installing the tweaker. You probably chose to put a link on the desktop, and then removed it manually.


This preference is saved in the following branch in the registry:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\7 Taskbar Tweaker

In the DWORD value:

MementoSection_DesktopLnk


Yours is probably set to 1, you can change it to 0 to avoid the shortcut creation.


It might be worth to check whether the shortcut was deleted manually, and avoid creating it in this case. I'll consider it for future versions.

Ok thanks, you were right. It was set to 1.
