Title: Could not locate Desktop ListView
Post by Mario on Mar 26^th, 2008, 4:10am

Hi

I try to use desktopcmd to save and restore iconlocations in a citrix session. The users have a server based profile and when they logoff I want to save the icons so I start a batch wich executes "desktopcmd save /y". The iconpositions don't get saved and no error message could be seen in the logs. So I changed the script to start a new cmd and execute desktopcmd with the same parameters but the newly called cmd don't close. Here I get an error message "Could not locate Desktop Listview.". Everything works fine if I execute the batch manually, it only seems to not work if the desktopcmd.exe is invoked during the logoff process. It would be nice if someone can point me the right way.

Thanks in advance,
Mario

It's possible (probable) that the Windows UI has been removed by the time the batch is run.

Hi Jamie,

yes I think it's a timing problem, when I try to run the desktopcmd through a GPO as logon script I get the same result. Never the less is this programm very usefull and I would like to thank you for your great work.

Greetings,
Mario
