Winamp 5.59 Public Beta

[MarkRH]

Has anyone else noticed when starting Winamp that it causes all the icons on the desktop to refresh/flicker? I replaced the executable with the 5.581 one to see what happened and it still did. Running Windows XP Home w/ SP3.

If I start Winamp right after restarting Windows, then it doesn't seem to do it.. so I dunno.

It does that if "Restore File Associations at Winamp Start-up" is enabled in Prefs -> File Types

I don't have that set. Only item checked in the File Types tab is "Show Winamp in the Folder context menus in Windows Explorer".

Under shell options I have "Play in Winamp" and "Enqueue in Winamp" selected for both the File Context menu and Folder Context Menu in the Windows Explorer Menu Control.

When that option is enabled on my Winamp, it always refreshes the icons when I launch Winamp.
