That's right namaide... But I can't find "the key" in the registry. Litestep is the only WM running by now (enought help form me).

Explorer.exe is needed for:
file magnagement
the recycled bin
some programs call it to do some dirty work (like some Antivirus)
litestep seems to call it.

I.E. If you can't run explorer.exe, yo can't have those things.

in order to make people change microsuX explorer.exe for litestep, you should make litestep do such work or create a file magnagement "lighter" than explorer.exe.

(seems to me that explorer.exe do little more than file magnagement)

G.W.

P.S: I can't reinstall until I finish some works.
