Is there a way to get explorer to close after launching kodi when pressing win+alt+enter?

You can kill the process explorer, but in somecase it may start automatically again.

Does anyone else here have the issue that Kodi Launcher is being recognised as malware by Avast?
XBMC Launcher did not have this issue...

I don't even get the option to ignore it...
RE: XBMCLauncher - All in One Tool for Change Shell, Set Focus and more - Morphy99 - 2015-01-29
Are your definitions up to date? Yes its safe as far as I know.
RE: XBMCLauncher - All in One Tool for Change Shell, Set Focus and more - Mastakilla - 2015-01-29
Both definitions and program are up to date yes...
Can you perhaps provide the checksum of the installer which avast does not recognize as malware on your pc?
That way I can validate that my installer is the correct one...

Newbie question here.
I installed KodiLauncher because I was getting the "Unable to create application" error when I had the Kodi shortcut in the Startup group on windows 7.
But I'm still getting this error when using KodiLauncher
Is there a way to fix this at all?
Thanks

KodiLauncher is safe to use. There is no malicious content in the code. Just disable avast prior to installation. Then add kodilauncher to the exclusion list in avast settings. You can also download the sourcecode and compile it yourself.

Does Kodi open correctly when you start it manually? Test by adding a startup delay in the launcher so as to give all drivers time to load.
RE: KodiLauncher not grabbing/keeping focus - DXer - 2015-01-30
Hi guys,
Maybe I'm missing something here but KodiLauncher doesn't seem to be grabbing focus. I have Focus Delay set to 10" but if I put Kodi in a Window and attempt to work on certain other apps, Kodi never comes back into focus unless I manually select it. Gotham worked fine, but Helix 14.1 doesn't do it.
The worst offender is uTorrent. When a TV episode is enqueued to download it pops up in focus over top of whatever I'm watching on Kodi. CCleaner is also popping up notifications. When I have Kodi running, I don't ever want to see any other notification about anything; I want it to behave like a cable box basically--a dedicated media player and nothing else. The machine is controlled 98% by a remote (FLIRC) and only when Helix crashes (a now-3x/day event) do I need to use a keyboard/mouse.
I have KodiLauncher set as the shell. How should it behave differently than if Windows Explorer is set as the shell?
Do I need to put the launcher into the startup group or will simply installing the app activate it?
Thanks in advance!

Hi please check 'Focus Settings'. Options 'Disable Focus Permanently' and 'Focus Only Once' should be disabled.

I recompiled the code and uploaded the new file to the download location. Please try it.

They were both disabled. Focus still doesn't come back to Helix.
