I have a problem. I'm running TinyXP_rev05 and changed the shell as described on the first page. I guess it works as it should:
I changed the registry key to start RoadRunner. Now when I reboot RoadRunner runs as shell. When I exit RoadRunner it automatically restarts. So far so fine.
But when I want to shutdown the computer, RoadRunner quits and then windows tries to restart it. But it can't because the shutdown-procedure is initiated. So a Windows message window appears saying "The application failed to initialize because the windows station is shutting down". Why does the system do that ? When I shutdown it obviously shouldn't restart the shell. I also set "AutoRestartShell" to 0, which doesn't make a difference.
1. So, how do I stop windows trying to restart the shell-program when shutting down ?
2. Not that important, but I'd rather like RoadRunner not to restart, when I quit it.

EDIT:
Hm, I guess this question fits better in the RoadRunner forums, so I posted my question also there. If that's against the rules I'll delete this post asap. I just still left it in this thread, because that's a problem which didn't appear in this FAQ before, and I guess this could be helpful for other users.

EDIT2:
Problem solved...more or less. After changing back from minilogon to winlogon this problem doesn't occur anymore. Anyone got a clue why it's not working correctly with Minilogon ?
