You seems having the same kind of problem than me.
On my PC connected to the XBOX, it crash like i said in my post, and i've try it on my other
PC with Win98SE, and it has done exactly the same thing to you.

It seems that qwix doesn't like Win98SE.

I have just dloaded another program (totally unrelated to this) and it does the same thing... also its not the first time i've seen newer, more recent apps do this in win98se..

could possibly mean this is an incompatibility issue between whatever they're coding and compiling with, hopefully not cos i really like using qwix and everytime after i've used it @ home i have to reboot.. to regain normality in windows.

If you run xFER 2.02 (and leave it running?) and then run Qwix, your taskbar probably won't disappear. I have no idea why this helps, but I'll try to sort this out at some point. It's definitely not something happening on Win2K or WinXP.

Yeh as i said, its nothing BIG at all, i mean you can still access everything its still there on the desktop just no tray or nothing....and that work around does work, but its sure picky! lol i had that program open one night and qwix opened fine (no sys tray missing) then the next it was gone again!

But yeh!

If your fix is the "If you run xFER 2.02 (and leave it running?) and then run Qwix, your taskbar probably won't disappear".. it doesn't work.

Not that you're waiting around for confirmation from me but yah, this version seems to be kicking butt. Leaves my start menu alone, speed is good.. nice work!
