Explorer issue with latest patch.
First off, I'm really enjoying the latest patch It looks great on my 22 inch monitor. Thanks guys, you've out done yourselves on this one!
In the brief time I've had to experiment with it, I have noticed one issue (it occurs in both MBT and WW2). When exiting from full screen mode, explorer fails to restart, causing no icons or task bar to appear on the desktop after it closes. It's no big deal, one can just press ctrl, alt, del and type in "explorer" as a new task. I'm not sure if anyone else has encountered this, but as I said it occurs for me in both games.
It may be possible in a future patch to run (force)the "explorer" executable in a script when exiting the game, if this turns out to be a wide spread issue.
FYI I'm running windows 7 professional, quad core i7, 12GB DDR3 RAM, NVIDIA 550 Ti 1GB RAM. The games are the CD versions and both were a clean install (using the directions provided). So far no other issues and no more of the dreaded color palette distortion.
Did I mention how great it looks with the new resolution support? Talk about getting the big picture! It's like a whole new game. I highly recommend it to anyone sitting on the fence worried about how it might perform under a newer PC.
