Ticket #346 (closed defect: invalid)

This condition was observed on a Toshiba Satellite L305-S5921 laptop computer running Windows Vista, Service Pack 2.

After installing Eraser 6.0.6.1376 (the stable build), whenever I log into my account on this computer, a DOS box pops up. The title of the window is "C:\bin\Eraser\Eraser.exe". (N.B. On my system, Eraser was installed at the path, "C:\bin\Eraser".) At the top line of the DOS box, an error message states, "Unknown action: -hide". Two lines below this, another message says, "Press enter to continue . . ."

After pressing Enter, the DOS box disappears. Eraser appears to work correctly on my system otherwise.

I attempted to uninstall and reinstall Eraser. However, the problem recurs even after doing so.

This is only a nuisance to me. However, it is likely to scare away less sophisticated users.

I am a software developer, so please feel free to let me know if I can be of any assistance in resolving this bug. I could, for example, run tests on my own system to help isolate the problem.

Thank you for your efforts on the Eraser project!
