[QUOTE="zicoz, post: 642777, member: 24585"] Yes the start menu and desktop is not loaded only the windows explorer (file browser). Yeah I was thinking that a batchfile might be one solution perhaps have one batch that I can launch from inside Mediaportal that changes the shell-registry back to exlorer.exe and reboots the HTPC and then another on the desktop that changes it to mediaportal.exe and reboots the computer. Turns out it was quite easy to do so: - Export "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon\" from regedit with "explorer.exe" in shell as explorer.reg - Export "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon\" from regedit with "c:\program files\team mediaportal\mediaportal\mediaportal.exe" in shell as mediapotal.reg Place them both in c:\batch Then open notepad and enter: Save it as winshell.bat Then open notepad and enter: Save it as mpshell.bat Then create a multishortcut link to winshell.bat and place it under plugins Then you only need to click that and you'll reboot into the Windows Shell after a few seconds. To have it reboot into Mediaportal all you need to do is to press the mpshell.bat file in windows. [/QUOTE]
