3DxHome window not opening

Post by derrickst »

I double click on 3Dconnexion Home and nothing happens. It's running -- I can see it in Task Manager. But it doesn't show up on my list of windows when I alt-tab, and it's nowhere to be found. Uninstalling and reinstalling shows the window -- until I reboot, and then it's gone forever again. This means I can't set up any preferences for individual programs. :( Anyone know of a workaround?

Could you post the contents of %appdata%\3dconnexion\3dxware\3dxhome\3dxhome.xml (if it exists)?

You don't need 3DxHome to change your settings. You can press the menu button on your device (if you one), or right click on the 3Dx sytray icon -> Open 3Dconnexion Settings.

You can alt-tab to that program (3DxSmartUI.exe).
3DxHome isn't put into the list of apps that you can alt-tab to (and it's not in the Taskbar).

Alas, it does not exist. I do not have a 3DxHome directory. This is very strange; I have a 3DxWare directory -- I'm using the latest drivers. But pressing the Menu button did work, so that's awesome, thank you. :)
