sam15 Posted May 23, 2008 Share Posted May 23, 2008 HiThe application is great and works pretty fine .There is just one problem that sidebar doesn't load automatically at every start of windows.Sometimes it does other time it doesn't.I first checked in properties to start with windows.Then I tried to paste its shortcut in start-up.Though it shows sidebar.exe in Task manager but it doesn't show sidebar on screen.I am also using Sidebar styler with this hope that isn't causing problems.Hope someone helps me.

ballinn Posted May 24, 2008 Share Posted May 24, 2008 (edited) Hey rick,Just to start off, ive used the previous version of this sidebar, and it worked great. I really thank you for your hard work. I wanted to install the new version, so i uninstalled the old one. I have a laptop running windows xp sp3. I hit download but the page just keeps loading and finally stops at a "server taking too long to respond" page. Is it a problem with the site or is it my computer? ThanksEDIT: Looks like sites back up again lol. Happy to know that it was the site, not my computer Edited May 24, 2008 by ballinn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ricktendo Posted May 26, 2008 Author Share Posted May 26, 2008 There is nothing wrong with the uninstall...if you get that error you got simply find the [uninstall] section in %WinDir%\inf\Sidebar.inf and delete the UpdateInis= line Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
