yes, I did the install. should there be an icon on the desk top ?
should be in the start menu
ok thanks / they were hiding in the start
no jj, i agree. they should go into an adobe folder under programs, not just flung about at the bottom of my start menu.
Matter of choice: I like new icons to appear at the bottom of the list.
You can then drag and drop them to a menu folder of your choice.

that messes with the uninstaller. should be in the company folder! (dammit!) 🙂
Those are only short cuts. Their location is immaterial to the functioning of the target files!
You can delete them if you want.
I use the Quick Launch toolbar anyway.
Like I said; matter of choice 🙂
Those are only short cuts.
yes i know. but if you move them the uninstaller can’t find them and you HAVE to delete them yourself. it’s not a matter of choice. it’s my way or the highway me bucko! 🙂

The uninstaller don’t need them short cuts, it looks for the install log.
and the install log tells it to look for them in the root of the user’s start menu, not in any folder. if you move them they won’t be deleted on an uninstall.
Oh well, will that stop the removal of the program and its reg entries?
I didn’t have a problem up to now!
I’m with you JJ – pretty much any program I install gets it start menu icons rearranged to suit my own folder hierarchy / scheme. If ever I uninstall, I know I have to delete them myself, but that doesn’t take me long.
will that stop the removal of the program and its reg entries?
no.
klaas, that’s not the point. the point of this light hearted jeousting is that adobe shouldn’t clutter up the start menu like that. make and use a bleeding folder already! if ever company did that, put it’s program and five supporting programs in the start menu (like microsloth office, btw)you’d have 5000 programs in your start menu and no folders. see what i mean?
adobe, i know you want to take over the world like microsoft, but instead of taking the stupidest things ms does, like activation and charging for upgrading older versions and splattering your icons all over my nice clean start menu <g> try to be more like google and "do no evil" or at least try not to be so obvious about your evil-ness! for crimminy sakes! or <gasp> you could try to keep users happy instead of treating them like potential criminals out of the box!
Microsloth Office didn’t even bother to put a short cut to PowerPoint in the start menu here. Too lazy I guess.
There is now a shortcut to it I made, with other self made shortcuts in desktop folder "Office Programs" which has more than links to just MS software in it.
