Hi, Marck, MDP> Do you have a TB shortcut in the Startup group? MDP> Where is the shortcut you use to start TB at other times?
I do, and it doesn't matter whether I use the Start Up shortcut or the desktop one. It crashes regardless. A>> I assume that there's a setting MDP> You have TB configured to "collect mail at startup" in account MDP> details. Nope. I found that and checked it, and it's not set for that. MDP> The other shortcut you have erroneously includes a "/EXIT" command MDP> line parameter. The "collect mail at startup" task kicks in before MDP> the /EXIT is obeyed and stalls the "requested" exit with the "Tasks MDP> are active" message you see. MDP> That's all I can think of. Edit the shortcut. I have no idea how to do that, but if that were at fault, it should crash only with the desktop shortcut and it's not limited to that. Thanks for trying. Any other ideas will be gratefully accepted.
