Windows 10 Start menu does not list Commander
开云体育The Windows 10 Start menu does not list Commander (at least on my desktop computer).The DXLabs Suite has five entries in its dropdown: DXKeeper, DXView, Pathfinder, Spot Collector and WinWarbler. I didn't look for Commander in the Start menu dropdown prior to the recent Windows Defender snafu (which I also suffered), so I don't know if it was ever there. But for certain it is not there now. Should Commander be in the Start menu's DXLabs Suite dropdown list? Steve, K8JQ |

Should Commander be in the Start menu's DXLabs Suite dropdown list? + The last Windows 10 machine on which I installed DXLab has an entry for "DXLab Suite" in the list of applications that appear when I click the "Window" button in the screen's lower-left corner. Beneath "DXLab Suite", entries for 7 DXLab applications are present; the Launcher is not present. + My advice is pin an entry for the DXLab Launcher on the Windows Task Bar, and use the Launcher to start the components of the Suite you use. You can configure the Launcher to automatically start those components when it starts. 73, Dave, AA6YQ |

Yes, I understand that functionality and have Launcher so configured. However, if I want to start only Commander (say, for testing purposes), Launcher in its "automatic start" configuration is cumbersome because it starts everything (i.e., everything it is configured to start). On my computer, Launcher takes 25+ seconds to get everything going and 20+ seconds to shut everything down. Inconvenient if testing only one member of the suite. This is the reason I was looking for Commander in the Windows Start menu dropdown. Is it practical for to get Commander to show up in the Windows Start menu dropdown? Another question: The help page "file:///C:/DXLab/Launcher/Help/ControllingApplications.htm" has a section named "Group Control Buttons". That section indicates an Abort button is included in Launcher, along with Start, Minimize, Restore and Terminate. My Launcher (2.1.2) window does not have the Abort button. Should the Abort button be there? Thanks. Steve, K8JQ On 4/5/2020 9:55 PM, Dave AA6YQ wrote:

I've found that MS virus shield identify CI_V Commander executable as a trojan. And put C:\DXLab\Commander\CI-V Commander1453.exe in quarantine. This is the problem: !cl&threatid=2147723317 + See <> + After you satisfy yourself that Commander1453.exe is not infected, direct your anti-malware to "unquarantine" it. 73, Dave, AA6YQ |

For me, Dave was right on the money.

In WIN10 Search for: Search/Security at a glance in Win10 Click on Virus&Threat protection Click on Current threats/Protection history Looking at All recent items/in my case, There were Threats blocked marked Severe/click on down arrow beside each threat/at the bottom of the new window, there is a selection ( it was restore or allow) choose . In my case, I had 4 threats, all for Commander. I cleared all 4 of them. Now commander 14.5.5 shows up in DXlab launcher Configuration Was able to upgrade to 14.5.5 DXLab Launcher 2.1.2 now brings up commander 14.5.5 as it should. In my case, all is now well and good at this end. Thanks Dave for all you do!!!!!! ED WA6WGS -----Original Message-----

Ed, that is great that it's working for you again. However, if you don't add an exception you may need to repeat these steps again in the future. Not everyone is comfortable adding exceptions to their virus protection. If you decide to add the exceptions, in the same window where you found the current threats, click on Manage Settings under Virus & Threat protection settings. Scroll down to Exclusions, and click Add or remove exclusions. Click on Add an exclusion, and choose the type of exclusion to add. Some will exclude an entire directory. What I typically do is try to only do the file needed, and go from there if it doesn't solve the problem. I have added an exclusion for the executable file for each DXLab application that I run (C:\DXLab\Commander\CI-V Commander.exe, C:\DXLab\DXKeeper\DXKeeper.exe, etc.) 73, Mike ND9G On Tue, Apr 7, 2020 at 12:41 PM Ed <wa6wgs@...> wrote: For me, Dave was right on the money. |
