DesktopX vs DesktopX Professional

from Stardock Forums

I was reading a tutorial on DesktopX and saw the example dialog box read "DesktopX Professional".

Started "Impulse" and selected the Tab for "My Software" and saw Desktop X and DesktopX Professional were

installed.  I right clicked to open the containing folder and both took me to the same folder.

I don't see an executable file for DesktopX Professional.  Where is it?  Should I uninstall DesktopX in

the hope that DesktopX Professional will show up and be the default for running the themes?

I see that you have an ObjectDesktop registration, but not a registration for Desktop X Pro. Note that ObjectDesktop comes with Desktop X Standard, not professional. If Impulse is reporting that Pro is installed, I recommend right-clicking on its entry, then clicking "Hide Application". You can read about the differences between versions here:
