win explorer open unexpectedly

Post by omega »

Can you guys reproduce this behaviour?

1. Open yahoo messenger (shortcut item placed in SS) see example of this picture http://img493.imageshack.us/my.php?image=ss25b3cz.jpg
(just open it without login)

2. Click on custom made menu item (also see example picture "Sys", "iNet", "Office" etc.)

After that windows explorer will automatically load.

Is the first step (start yahoo messenger) necessary to reproduce this problem?

Does all User menu items open Windows Explorer window?

I've only placed yahoo messenger and volume control as shortcuts. Haven't tried with other programs yet. This doesn't occur with volume control though, and the behaviour doesn't always occur starting yahoo messenger.

Chances are higher to reproduce this is start SS after starting the PC then follow the 2 steps i mentioned ealier.

If i close the win explorer and yahoo messenger and try to start yahoo messenger again, clicking on the menu items won't cause explorer to load again. So it's not always reproduceable.

I've tested this on 3 menu items i created.

Oh! My old SS-screen. :)
It's sometimes it happens - spontaneous Windows Explorer window opening, like I sent Shift+F3 commad to SS.
But I think it appears only if system is busy in this moment? and SS slowdown too.
My deepest apologies for my awful English.
