can't stop object desktop from starting up

I have checked with sys config and I don't have object desktop on start up but can't seem to find how to prevent it from starting up.

performancefab,

Please be more specific.

Are you talking about the splash screen at start-up, or a specific program (Object Desktop is a group of programs).

If you are talking about the splash screen, you can start Stardock Central, go to "Tools > Settings > deselect the "enable MCP smart startup" option > click "OK".

Note - "sdmcp.exe" is needed by ObjectDock for the SystemTray functions (and perhaps some parts of DesktopX). Disabling MCP smart start may cause issues, so reenable if things get a bit weird.

I run WindowBlinds, IconPackager, and ObjectDock (without SystemTray docks) with "MCP smart startup" option disabled - and have not had an issue.

I hope this helps.
