I've recently installed Objectdock and the Impulse launcher. But whenever I double click on the icon to run objectdock it comes of with a text box saying "Objectdock Has Stooped working" when it didn't even show up on my desktop. Whats wrong?
Which version of ObjectDock,free or Plus?
Where did you download it from?
Did you temporarily disable any AV/spyware apps while installing? You may want to uninstall it,run a cleanup program like CCleaner,reboot, then try again with these disabled.
I have the free version and i downloaded it from objectdock.com.
Please give this a try. Stardock recommends that you disable these apps when installing their software.
The anti spyware programs?
Both your Anti-Virus and any spyware app you have running can interfere with the install. Temporarily disabling these is recommended.
Alright, I'll try that and get back to you if it still doesn't work out.
Might be having some conflicts with other softwares. Alternatively you can use Rocketdock or Circle Dock.
Give me my first of 10 karmas for this help. u people have 100s do some charity.
Here is a 100% guaranteed solution-
Firstly just make sure that you are logged on as administrator if you are on Vista coz its my self experience that in many cases after installing a software you would get the message - "Program Has Stooped working" or did the program install correctly, this is mainly due to Vista's User Account Control (UAC).
When an administrator logs on to a computer running Windows Vista, the user is assigned two separate access tokens. Access tokens, which contain a user's group membership and authorization and access control data, are used by Windows® to control what resources and tasks the user can access. Before Windows Vista, an administrator account received only one access token, which included data to grant the user access to all Windows resources. This access control model did not include any failsafe checks to ensure that users truly wanted to perform a task that required their administrative access token.
The primary difference between a standard user and an administrator in Windows Vista is the level of access the user has over core, protected areas of the computer. Administrators can change system state, turn off the firewall, configure security policy, install a service or a driver that affects every user on the computer, and install software for the entire computer. Standard users cannot perform these tasks and can only install per-user software.
Because the user experience can be configured with Group Policy, there can be different user experiences, depending on policy settings. The configuration choices made in your environment will affect the prompts and dialog boxes seen by standard users, administrators, or both.
And as wizard1956 has mentioned above, disable all antivirus and antispyware temporarily before while installing any software.

divyasugar,your new total is now -2
hmmmm u remind me something.
Forgive me, I not wanted to trouble your choice. I never asked for karma. I said for fun.
Divya...The Wizard was just kidding. Don't take it to heart.
I turned off all my anit spyware and ani virus software. I'm the only user on this box and I am the administrator. I tried to do it again and it still said "Programs Has Stopped Working".
I have clearly mentioned "The configuration choices made in your environment will affect the prompts and dialog boxes seen by standard users, administrators, or both."
1.Just read the whole thing I've written above,
2.Also, after doing as I said, uninstall and run the setup by right click, then choose"Run as Administrator"
Great , you want karma for fun !!
Just read your previous post, did'nt you ask for karma?
I guess she meant she had asked for it in a funny way. Don't worry Divya.. It'a alrighty here.
