We have no issue with JcRabbit clarifying or correcting statements about his Software [Winstep].

Yes, he's a competitor but he's also a long-time collaborator, colleague and friend....;)

The relevant phrase is...."a rising tide lifts all boats".

As indicated in reply #76 Stardock Administrator and moderators have no issues with JcRabbit clarifying or correcting statements about his Software [Winstep].

Ah, he's the developer/owner of Winstep; I've suspected as much for a year now.

I don't have any complaint about describing Winstep, once or twice, but I don't care for knocking Stardock by ascribing silly indefensible positions and decisions to them, then repeating the process of both every three months or so, indefinitely.  That kind of thing can irritate people.

Back to the thread, I'm cool with Object Dock not supporting "Universal Applications" because my workstation isn't a tablet or cell phone.  If I ever do have use for a "Universal Application" I will get to it with the "Windows 10 Menu" button in Start 10.

I would like to see the tabbed dock react to the mouse during the Windows 10 "thunk" every time an application or window is closed.  I did try upping the priority of the process, ObjectDock.exe or ObjectDockTray.exe. to "Above normal" but that did not seem to have any effect on the "thunk" lockout of just about everything in Windows 10 except direct mouse operations in the Windows 10 user interface.  It's like Windows 10 is using multiple mouse-sensing event loops (our mouse interrupt response routing, or whatever) in its GUI API, and the hooks to the Windows 10 event loop that works during the "thunk" isn't made known to OS extension people like Stardock.

Thanks Hankers and Jafo.

No, what this - and now the replies by the forum administrators above - should tell you is that you're assuming a LOT about things you know nothing about. I specifically said in my post 'Stardock and Winstep have always been on friendly terms' - you should have taken my word for it.

Despite being 'competitors' (if you can call it that given the scale of things lol) we are also all friends and acquaintances here who go back a very long time - and, as Jafo said, 'a rising tide lifts all boats'. This is as true now as it was then.

Anyway, I hope this puts a definite end to your 'you should be banned' argument.

My avatar should have given you a clear clue, no?

No, that kind of thing can obviously irritate YOU. You just decided to take pains that aren't yours to take, and it didn't pan out the way you thought it would.

You have already accused me of spreading FUD and now of "knocking Stardock by ascribing silly indefensible positions and decisions to them".   Since you act like you know more than me, despite backing none of your claims with actual quotes or facts, please prove it (should be easy)  - or choose your weapons (lol).

If you didn't like or agree with my reply to YOUR criticism of Winstep software, you could have simply debated those points with me.  If not here, in another thread. Instead you don't counter-argue ANYTHING, all you do is make silly accusations and point the finger at me while shouting 'Shame, shame!' at the top of your lungs - with the obvious intention of causing harm.

Please.

Had I done ANY of the things you accuse me of, the moderators here would have been the first to call me at attention. I know this, they know this.

"Anyway, I hope this puts a definite end to your 'you should be banned' argument."

Excuse, me, READ THE POST.

And, no, "but that means that you said..." doesn't work.

"No, that kind of thing can obviously irritate YOU. You just decided to take pains that aren't yours to take, and it didn't pan out the way you thought it would."

Now, you are just doing combat.  I'm done with you.  I don't see a way to "Ignore Users" so I'll un-follow this thread.

And delete my download of Winstep, and drop any option of ever trying it again.

To be clear and blunt.

Generally speaking anything and everything NOT specifically related to a Stardock Support issue within the Forum section "Stardock Support" would be summarily deleted without comment.

However, in this case the detour off-topic required response/clarification.

That has been done.

It is now time to return to topic.

Anything subsequent off-topic will be removed.

This has been bugging me, the part about OD working for one and not the other. I have Win 10 Home. I'm sure others do too. If Win 10 is the culprit then why will it work on my Toshiba and not on, lets say, someone's Dell or HP with the same OS version. Machine specific? or a piece of software not playing nice, i.e a conflict of sorts. This 'puter noob wants to know. 

Well I can say it’s real sluggish on my HP desktop running Win 10 pro. I use another dock app.

Supposedly they know,shouldn't Stardock would make Object Dock compatible with Win10 already,especially the main developer has "phased" out to next project??   

Windows 10 1803 17133.1 and  ObjectDock 2.20 Perfect Runnigt.          

OS/2 OS/2 1.1 - Warp 4 and all eCS. Now only MS Windows. 

I'm running Windows 10 Pro - version 1803, and Objectdock continues to work perfectly.

I also should point out that i'm running the older Objectdock 2.0 as I never felt the need for the added features in the later builds.

That being said, 2.0 has installed and ran properly for me over a dozen or more Windows 10 installations, both home and pro.

ObjectDock 2.20 freezing all the time on Windows 10 Pro : For me, the quick and dirty trick of francoiskmorgan (Reply #17 December 16, 2015 12:13:33 PM), that is - 1) renaming "Dock64.exe" into "Dock64TMP.exe" and 2) restarting ObjectDock - worked instantly ! Tx... I may not know why, but little do I care ! I have been using this dock for such a long time with so much pleasure ! I cant help walking the mouse over every 10 seconds to see the upper docks popping out at my command ! For the first time after 1 year of irritating patience...

Windows 10 Home Build 1809, Object Dock is running just fine. I don't like it as well as the Stardock-made Dell dock but that one won't run on an Alienware computer.

I find all of this so weird. I am running OD on several Win10 machines, some Pro some not, Some upgraded from 7. I have no issues at all.  The real bummer is that there are no new or updated backgrounds for it any more. Is there any plan to continue the development? Cant see why not.

Uh... read the posts. OD is DEAD. NO MORE UPDATES. The end. Enjoy while it still (semi) works.
