Issue launching GSmartControl on Installed WinRE

Post by Mr.X »

Firstly, I don't know whether this issue is caused by TBLauncher or is a GSmartControl bug or a RE bug.

If I launch GSmartControl from TBLauncher menu

if you go back after it ran without a message, does it do the same thing ? Could it be the current directory it needs?

Go back?
Current directory?
Not sure what you mean with both questions. Sorry.

try launching it again after you've launch again after launched successful.

to test current dir, open command prompt, try running the exit via a full path "c:\program files\xyz\abc.exe" .. then change to that directory, try launching abc.exe .. if difference, it's the current directory that needs to be set.

If it needs it, you can set the WorkingDir value for the TBLauncher menu item.

did it start or complain? There shouldn't be any other difference starting it any other way.
