I cant get that addon to work. I cant even get Impulse to minimize to my system tray. Its either open, in the toombar as a box, or closed. iSo I cant get those sales alerts.

look through the options/preferences, there should be one that lets you do it. |

To clarify something, it's not actually Impulse that you're trying to get installed down there - it's a service that connects to Impulse. I don't have my PC with it installed in front of me, but I'll track down where the program is actually located this evening and post it here so you can manually install it. |

this program is called "ImpulseNow" and is located in:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Stardock\Impulse\Now\ImpulseNow.exe
It has its own options (RMB -> settings) so check there "Load ImpulseNow on startup"

I'd also double check it's not under the same tree but as "Program Files-> ..." instead of "Program Files (x86)-> ..."
Not sure if there's a way to download on its own, but I'll look.

this "ImpulseNow" should be installed when you are installing impulse. Check your folder where impulse is installed or just search all your disks for file "impulsenow.exe".

Ok search found it. Seems I have a D:\impulse and a D:\Stardock both. It was under the one I didn't see before. I set it to run on startup so maybe next time I reboot it will work. I can hope |

It used to start automatically for me, but all of a sudden a few days ago it doesn't anymore. And the option is checked to have it start automatically. So you aren't the only one having problems with it. |
