Spend a bit of time constructing my group with success. Not sure why some files/folders don't display when using the simple method to add to the group and maybe some one can explain that. I use explorer and the items are there, but don't show up when searching with 8Start.

Anyway, I have a group that consists of browsers because I like to use several. All placed under "Programs" have loaded successfully. Google chrome is not installed there and I have located the file to launch the browser, but cannot figure out how to get into the browser group I have created.

Tried copy & paste without any success. It just opens the settings\group folder in 8Start. Has anyone else done this successfully.

BTW - I did search previous forums topics and was unable to locate this subject. Maybe there, just can't find it. (I'm a newbie)

I use Vista Home Premium OS that is current as of two days ago.

In advance, thanks.

Guess newbies don't get help.

I'll try Google. :)

I not understand exactly your problem; anyway

if the button not launch the program

- if you drag a exe file inside a group works only if it is a standalone program

- if you've created a link sure that it works even without 8start

- if you have not created the button with organize button make sure you have regenerated the cache
(apply on organize button ...)

- if you created the button with organize button make sure you have correctly used absolute or relative path

if the button does not have the icon

- check on design button [] the icon flag

- you have regenerated the cache when 8start not found the program
extract the program icon (or download one from the web) and give to the button
