Read another topic where you explain that you are actually using a 3rd party app instead of writing your own. No biggie. For now I guess, since you don't have all the freedom to modify it.

Anyway. I was wondering if it's possible to NOT have Windows automatically jump to Desktop with it enabled.
I like the startscreen (aka no-longer-called-Metro-interface), and I'd like to keep it as the Start Screen.
I've looked and could not see an option that could be ralated to that.
Is it there and I missed it or is it not there yet?
Can it be done?

Thank you

Edit:
I guess it must have been something else because it's no longer jumping straight to desktop.
Sorry! ]]>
