LaunchBar Commander / Backup folder location-relocate from default
« on: August 08, 2012, 01:14 PM »
I cannot find within the Launchbar where to designate the storage of backup files.
I would prefer that the backup is not stored in my C:\User\documents
I attempted to relocate this backup file to be on drive E but even without an .ini file in the original Documents\Donationcoder\Launchbar folder the backup goes there anyway.

At the moment I copied the current date backups to drive E:
There is a high possiblity that my system drive will have to have a Windows reinstall and I'll lose everything on C
Therefore I'm checking all files that I would need to start over again.

LaunchBar Commander / Re: First use of the day-long pause
« on: May 21, 2012, 09:03 AM »
Thanks for the immediate explanation. I had considered that I had configured a link in a  folder that wasn't being found or that I had too much in the bar then the icon concept came into my mind <LOL!> As simple as the drive spinning up....well, its not me then!
Now I know I don't have to do any further musings<GRIN> Once the desktop etc is on the screen I just go to the LB and get it going then its ready when I need it.

LaunchBar Commander / First use of the day-long pause
« on: May 20, 2012, 08:21 PM »
I wondered if LaunchBar Commander is connected to the Windows icon database.  At one point I found via an online article, the registry key that is supposed to have a number that is connected to the icon or thumbnail datatbase and in my Windows 7 there wasn't that registry entry that was described in the article I had found.
At any rate, the first use of the day for the sidebar Launchbar there is a 'wait time' for a folder to display. This is a folder holding shortcut icons.  When it has been opened once then it is actually available even by hovering for the rest of the morning. If the Launchbar is not used for a long time later in the day the same routine will repeat. Of course, this is the'go to' listing in the launchbar so that wait period can get a little aggrevating <grin>
I wondered if the icons had to be retrieved or whatever Windows does with icons.

Downloaded and installed....
Previously when you replied suggesting I had two instances running....which contributed to the docking jumping side to top...you were correct.
Clicking on the desktop shortcut icon did have two instances running when I checked the task manager.

On this new install if I clicked on that desktop icon it just activated my current right hand side dock.
I removed that desktop shortcut so I wouldn't click it by accident in the future

To date the launchbar has been extremely responsive but if I have other windows open that are close to that edge it hesitates a bit before it displays the folder associated with the menu. Some software when on full screen  goes into that launch bar area so there is a bit of a conflict and I have to be crafty with my mouse cursor

Overall, everything is fine and the update installed smoothly

I have just downloaded and will test out the new version.

Thanks for the input.

I just posted my 'simple but efficient' bar in the 'post your desktop bar' topic <grin>
