Ok, I see some extra movement in the task bar when opening LyX, ..
that's all.
I believe that with your installer, one can really see a window popping
up (or two).
Well, it's three in fact: first two windows open and close quickly, then
one opens and stays for quite a while. That's probably the one most
people complain about. this one opens also if you use lyxLauncher.exe or
lyx.exe.
If you change the lyx.bat start command with "/MIN" and/or "/B", the 2
first windows will actually stay longer (IOW don't do that ;-) ).
Note that it's unclear to me why such a minor cosmetic problem who lead
to prefer one installer over the other. Uwe's installer has the
advantage of being out sometimes up to 1 week before the other one.
That's quite a significant bonus if you are waiting for the new version
because you have a nasty problem (crash, etc.).
Best regards,

PS: I also remember that there is a message about installing "PyWin" or
something with a similar name to avoid the console. Could that be a
difference between installers ?
