Yeah that fixed it! .. I removed the folder with launchy shortcuts in it and the problem has gone.  Bit annoying cos they're useful links and Launchy didn't have a problem with them, but I'll soldier on with FARR for now anyway...

Oh incidently - just to be a keyboard bore, it would be well convenient if 'tab' took you straight to 'Post' on this quick-reply

cheers!

yeah.. was kinda inconvenient tho to be honest, lot of handy shortcuts on there...  seemed to be hanging on another folder full of links I made for 'Launchy' too, be nicer if it just learnt to avoid dead links or something?  Thanks

oops I've uninstalled FARR already whilst giving keybreeze a shot (nice so far but fugly)...

Pretty damn certain it was whilst searching my desktop which has links to various network folders and a network drive it was freezing (like I said, network is not online at the moment)

Evaluating Keybreeze right now, which seems pretty quick so far, but I miss FARR's weighting options...

Seems to be 'most of the time' at the moment.. Got a feeling it's cos only half my network has been built so far (moved house) so there are dead shortcuts on my desktop etc.

Any way I can stop FARR from going for network links?

Find And Run Robot / FARR alternatives?

« Last post by jomtones on February 29, 2008, 03:10 AM »

Ok so far I tried Launchy which I liked but inexplicably stopped working.

Haven't had much luck getting FARR to run smoothly and want something simple I don't have to muck about with too much, can anyone recommend another launcher?

Hmm well I just cleared it and turned off 'recent docs' but it didn't seem to make any difference...

I guess there's a chance.. I'm running AVG free + PC Tools Firewall plus.

Also there's a couple of network drives on my PC that aren't connected...

Find And Run Robot / FR - more skins without the 'FARR' in title

« Last post by jomtones on February 28, 2008, 04:29 PM »

Personally I find the title bar a bit distracting... my favourite 'look' so far for a launcher was some of 'launchy's skins - very minimal and straightforward.

Cheers!

Find And Run Robot / FARR freezing?

About 1/3 of the time FARR just freezes, text input stops working for a while, then everything you typed and your results drop in after about 30secs...

I have only the defaults plus one shortcut folder selected...

Any ideas?

Cheers!
