Hi everybody

I have a little problem with my image. I have two different shells one for
the administrator ( an explorer shell ) and other for the user that is an
application (http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms838576.aspx). It
works fine but the problem is that I have a bluetooth adapter that works fine
in the administrator shell ( explorer shell) but it doesn't work in the user
shell cause the bttray process doesn't run. I think that bttray.exe needs
explorer shell, is it possible??.

regards

sandra
 
I do have direct knowledge on the Bluetooth tray icon. I would have assumed
that it could be deleted, but the service should still work okay. I know
Explorer is needed for the Automedia detect, but I thought that was the only
feature.

1. Can you load Explorer.exe as a hidden background task? If you can see if
Bluetooth works. If it does then Explorer is needed.
2. In some cases moving to a custom shell means the timing can be thrown off
a bit. You may have to wait or manually start the service within your
application.
