Just for information, what OS do you have and what are the specs of your machine?

I will try setting up a file structure with the file path in that screenshot and see what happens. From that screenshot, it shows Circle Dock is trying to open up the .lnk file and from the results it seems that is not happening. As a work around for now, couple you manually find the real file path for that executable and replace the .lnk link with the real path? That way, Circle Dock will try to directly open up the real file. For some reason, it appears that for that file, Circle Dock could not resolve the real file path from that .lnk.

That's cool that they wrote a .NET SDK for docklet development. I just wonder if anyone has created a .NET program that can host the docklets so that it can be used with other programs without having to reverse engineer ObjectDock?
