It's more useful and bug-less. Anyway, try changing "\" to "\\" in "Exec=" line. If it doesn't work, try the unix-like path (something like "/mnt/windows/Program Files/Netscape/..."). Right ?

Sometimes I have to use the windows/wine Netscape which is reasonably stable.> Anyway, try changing "\" to "\\" in "Exec=" line. > If it doesn't work, try the unix-like path (something like > "/mnt/windows/Program Files/Netscape/...")."\" should be "\\\" but the absolute unix-path also works. It was just that the windows path was given and with only one "\" between each path element. Three "\" are necessary (I have tried two "\" but that wouldn't work). Bernhard
