Thanks for this report. > The target properties of the desktop icon are: > C:\Python33\pythonw.exe "C:\Program Files (x86)\Leo-4.11-b1\launchLeo.py" These look correct. And they work for me after a clean install. Note: the initial load of Leo can take quite awhile: all .py files must be compiled. For trouble shooting, please do the following: - Change pythonw.exe to python.exe - Add an -i option to the target properties. The effect of this will be to run Leo in a console window, holding the console window open. This should tell you exactly what is happening. > Selecting Start Menu>Leo does not launch Leo, I just see a flash of the splashscreen and it dies. I did find an issue related to the start menu. If I chose "All Programs" then Leo, there was an old copy of the leo shortcut lying around that didn't work. And even after deleting the Leo install, there was an old, out-out-date Leo folder accessible from the start menu. And furthermore, there were differences (from the start menu) between opening Leo and opening Leo for all users. This is surely confusing, but it may be the result of old installs. My suggestion: 1. Uninstall b1. 2. Delete everything related to Leo from your start menu, both accessible via "search programs and files" and the "all programs list". Make sure to delete everything for all users as well as yourself. 3. Reinstall b1. 4. Test. If problems remain, make the changes above (-i, python.exe), and report the results. Thanks for your help.
