- I have experience some weird WorkPlace problems in OS/2.
- I have setup a few icons to run batch files (eg running telnet) and
- place them on the desktop (shadowed from their appropriate folders).
- Occasionally, I get no response from clicking on the icons, even trying
- to change their settings may not work when this happens. If they response,
- their setting menu will be brought up and changing them to the right settings
- does not help. Only solution I have found so far is to bring up OS/2 Window
- (or Full screen) and kill the PMSHELL process (second one using one of the
- Process Status utilities found in OS/2 ftp sites) with KILLEM. Once killed,
- the whole workplace will close before starting up again. This will restore
- everything to their proper operation.
-
- Anyone seen this before? Any current solution?
- Thanks!
