[Addon] Desktop Restore v1.6.2 (x86 & x64)

Desktop Restore operates as a Shell extension. It records the layout and positions of icons and programs on the Windows Desktop, and permits restoration of the layout. It appears to operate correctly under Windows 2000 and Windows XP. There have been several reports that it works correctly under Windows Vista as well.

hi, where does it save the restore file too?

cheers james

Hi james, the restore settings are stored under:

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\JOConnell]

[arsenalz]

Maybe for complete silent install:

;!@Install@!UTF-8!

GUIMode="1"

RunProgram="DeskInstU.msi /qn"

;!@InstallEnd@!

Useful post!

If you want it completely silent, you also have to change: GUIMode="2"

But I like progress bars, this way you can more easily see what's going on.

Yeah...Guimode="2" , /qn and, in some cases, /q it also works...

Updated both to v1.6.2.
