    This is perfect, thanks a lot!
     

  2. It happens every single time on two different machines, so I know I'm not double clicking. I successfully removed the mod and then reinstalled it and it still occurs. Very strange...

    I must admit that I'm not sure why it's opening two windows of just "Desktop Background" for you.

    As a test, manually run it's command below to see if it does the same.

    rundll32.exe shell32.dll,Control_RunDLL desk.cpl,,@desktop

    Yes, this causes two windows to open as well. I did notice that the first time I ran it it did not cause this behavior, but every time after that does. It seems that the first time I open the window after booting up it only opens one window, but every time after that it opens two.

    Interesting. When you close it, check in Task Manager to see if it's process (Desktop Background under Windows Explorer) may still be running in the background for some odd reason.

    This does indeed spawn two Desktop Background processes and I believe I discovered why. I have "Launch folder windows under a separate process" enabled in Folder Options. If I disable that setting then it only opens one window.

    Good find. That's what is causing it. I'll add a note to the tutorial now.
