So, this morning, while I was on the train to work, I wanted to try to install csro and try the euro before it comes to see if it's even worth it.

So, I changed my sro folder name...

But, then I remembered I needed to change my start menu shortcut...and decided to do it by hand...

Image (this one I mean)


So, went to properties and changed it....

Then, ok, all's well. I decide to play Unreal for teh rest of the train ride since my bluetooth only really allows dial up if I wanted...

I open up opera...and silkroad opens up...weird

Meh, random error

So I open up word to work on my tumor data...silkroad opens up...wtf

I decide to take a video of it...I start taksi...silkroad opens up...

I took a screenie...and tried to save it with paint...silkroad again...

out of despseration I try starting random programs....everything goes back to silkroad...

I panic...since I needed to use my computer today....

system restore, the savior for all...

it opened up silkraod too.

I restarted...all my start up programs opened up silkd road, even my virus scanner and firewall...

It was most annoying....

It was the most annoying error ever....

I changed the silkroad shortcut from the start menu to open system restore (which changed all the other programs to open it as well) and just restored....but it took about 20 minutes of panicking to figure it out...

not enjoyable =(

Random story for the day.

Every sentence you type does not need to be on a new line.

...and you said no pic. I see a picture.

Just uninstall then reinstall SRO, thats the only thing I can think of.

Oh, no, I fixed it. By reassociating all files to open system restore instead. =)

It was just a weird occurence though that I wanted to share...and to suggest that people don't manually change their shortcuts to open up certain exe files....>.<

it was an inconvenience...but nothing more. =P

But I originally didn't intend to contain one...but meh...=P
