--- Comment #2 from lilydjwg@gmail.com --- Yes, if you run explorer with /desktop=shell argument, it still appears. But running explorer alone isn't useful. When I run my game, it no longer appears, and once the game window is minimized, it's gone forever.
BTW, I didn't receive a notification email...
