Startup Applications Preferences Manager Fails to Save Changes.
Last modified: 2010-03-02 13:57:22 UTC
After editing a startup item, the Startup Applications Preferences Manager fails to save the change. To reproduce: In the Startup Applications Preferences Manager, click on a startup item, click edit, make a change in the command block, click save, click close. Then open the Startup Applications Preferences Manager, and click on the startup item, click edit, and you will see that the change was not made. To get around the bug: After clicking save, reclick on the startup item, and it will show the changes that you just made, click save, click close. Then open the Startup Applications Preferences Manager, and click on the startup item, and you will see that it correctly saved your changes. Summary: If you don't make it recheck the changes made before closing the Startup Applications Preferences Manager, it will fail to save the changes.
