Create a shortcut to something in the Quick Launch folder (note the space
between the words).
The restart the computer. It should be able to appear then.

Dual boot is okay, you can still share OE's files that way.

It was cold enough for snow today here it felt like. Blasted wind.....

Yeah, a corrupt Identity can cause problems and not just with OEB. You
should have to see how many cow paths I have to drive down in code to make
sure I have all the possibilities there for the program to just begin to
run.......Regular set up Identity, No Identities subkey at all, an Identity
started but not finished (no subkeys), Identity partially started, (some
subkeys), and a host of others.Then onward with the other checks such as
which OS is running, where are the files located, what are all the
Identities and their paths. Do certain values exist?, etc.......Then the
program shows up on the screen eventually. I looked one time and there were
about 500 lines of code to do just the basic start up. I think the whole
program is over 100,000 lines and about 20 forms. Basically it's just
another way to kick one's self in the rear trying to go thru it.
