Hi Jeff,
I to have noticed the same problem. In fact when doing the Load App feature
does not even work any more. I get nothing when using that hot key.
All I can say is that it use to work, but not any more!

Subject: problems with app manager
I am continuing to have problems with App Manager.
Using WE 7.5 windows xp pro sp3
Try this and see what happens:
1. Open App manager
2. Choose load
3. Type in an app name-I used the working version of the example from
Chip's class 10
Which I called PopUpText
4. The app loaded fine for me.
5. Choose unload and unload the app.
6. Choose load again and load the same app.
When I did this, the app manager appeared to hang the speech and finally the
app appeared to be loaded--but it was not in the list.
When I loaded it a second time, it loaded properly again.
Also, as I reported before, when trying to load an app from a folder within
my default folder, either by typing the name or by using the dialog to navigate
to the file, there is a long delay, and then window-eyes reports file not
found.
I did switch to Eloquence instead of DecTalk and this seems to help reducing
some of the long speech blackouts, but I think that we really have gone
backwards with WE 7.5 as far as the App Manager, and the instability of the
DecTalk synthesizer interface.
