sorry for answering so late.There are very few Microsoft Windows users
that reported anything about the Pharo launcher on Windows, so I guess
you are one of the only users on Windows. If you have time, please try
the approach you like better and keep me informed. The fact that the
Pharo 3 release is close is not relevant as the launcher is not part
of Pharo 3.

Best
