Thanks for the suggestion of the Lee-soft ViStart. Sure, there is no customization, but it gives me exactly what I was looking for. I do not seem to be experiencing the shut down bug, as it works perfectly for me on RP. There are two pieces of crapware bundled into the installer, just hit decline on both of them. If the developer ever makes it over to this forum to read these posts, here is a suggestion: dump the crapware and make it donation-ware. Once Windows 8 is finally released to the public, you are going to have a product that will be in huge demand, and people will pay.
Thanks. However, I noticed you posted it in his forum for ViPad instead of ViStart. Edit: Well, now I see he doesn't have a suggestion forum for ViStart. Hopefully Lee will figure out your post is about ViStart
DUDE or DUDETTE. Putting meaningless and useless replies in a bunch of threads, some of them dead topics, is really not a cool way to get your post count up.
