I renewed my object desktop subscription yesterday and since then my object dock and cursor FX do not load on start up. they are both on the Object Doc list and open when clicked but don't remain on the next start up. I have to open Object Desktop and open them both again every time. WHY?
Hello,Sorry to hear you are having issues. Please check if both products are set to start upon boot.
ThanksBasj,Stardock Community Assistant.

Basj illustration is of the Windows 10 (or old) Task Manager. In the Windows 11 (or New) Task Manager, the Startup apps tab is in the left column.
In case you are not sure how to access the Task Manager. On your keyboard press Start+R and then enter "taskmgr.exe" and then press Enter.
I am on Windows 10. but have my Start up apps are listed in the Start up button on the bottom left of the screen.
Object dock is actioned to load on start up.
I can't see a menu for Cursor FX
I think you are looking in the Windows Settings. Try opening the Task Manager. On your keyboard press Start+R and then enter "taskmgr.exe" and then press Enter.
Pelaird - thanks I found the task manager via your keyboard link :- Start+R and then enter "taskmgr.exe"
This seems to have worked for both apps. Is there another way to access task manager onscreen? Just for future reference
Thanks
Right Click the Start button and select Task Manager, or Right Click the taskbar and select Task Manager.
Thanks Pelaird,
I found on my PC:-
Right click taskbar opens a list to select task manager.
Right click start button opens a list including "run" which then opens a mini window to open task manager.
Thank you
