However, an alternative to the present TDE menu is worth looking into, as I also have some persistent glitches that won't go away and don't "want" to be modified by myself. And as for the debate over uniform standards versus user wishes - well, I am of two minds there. And I stand firmly on both sides of that question. Anyway, use the search feature in your TDE menu, enter kbfx, and you ought to find *somewhere* within this item: kbfxconfigapp Enter that into your run dialog (alt+F2), and it opens up the configurator application.
