Hi Per, I cannot get the above link to work. It says not found.

If the file does not exist create it and load TurboTK. If the file is found to exist do not load the toolkit. At the end of the session tidy up the boot device by deleting this file. Not elegant but practical. Hi Duncan, But what if during the session the QL crashes? The TTKLoaded file will remain on the Win drive, and the next time the QL session is started, it won't work properly. A nice idea though. Another way of doing this is to use environment variables, which I use myself.
