You're right, I was mistaken. Nuts. Let's go back to your
email from earlier this week:

Based on your report, I went back into Kaboodle and VNC
and isolated the VNC bug. Here's the problem:
1. In the current version (0.99) everything works correctly if
the VNC Server is *registered as a service*. That is, a VNC
service is running on my PC; I start Kaboodle and set it up
to autostart VNC on a different display; I click AutoStart,
and WinVNC autostarts correctly, on the port I indicate.
Perfect.
2. I go to Programs -> VNC -> VNC Server -> Unregister VNC
Server service. Then I open Kaboodle and try to Autostart.
I get the error "Failed to find the path of the WinVNC".
Behavior #1 above is correct. Behavior #2 is the problem.
It looks like Kaboodle can correctly detect when a VNC Server
service is running if that service is registered, but it cannot
correctly detect when that service is *not* running when it's
*not* registered.
Of course, the desired behavior of #2 is self-evident:
if no VNC Server service is running, regardless of whether or
not it is registered, Kaboodle should just start VNC as an app
as it does in #1.
