Hello,
I installed MJ on my XP (SP2) machine a few days ago. It seems to be working well but I've run into an annoyance I can't resolve. I don't want a desktop shortcut however If I delete it, it always regenerates when I reboot. Does anyone know of a workaround?
Thanks,
-Mike
MJ desktop shortcut regenerates upon reboot (XP)
Moderators: Pilot, Bill Smith
I'm a total novice on MJ but it looks like the desktop shortcut/icon is regenerated upon reboot by "magicJackLoader.exe". Even if you customize the icon (using a blank transparent icon for example) it will be deleted and then replaced by the original MJ icon when you reboot. Very odd! It's difficult to understand why the developer hasn't included user selectable options for shortcuts, splash screen, softphone UI launching, etc.
It looks like that's the only viable workaround for the time being. I'll give it a try.
