It seems like it install correctly, but there is NO start menu item. Looking in the install log and there are 2 errors:

Output folder: C:\Program Files\Notpod Extract: Notpod.exe... 100% Extract: log4net.dll... 100% Extract: logging.xml... 100% Extract: Interop.iTunesLib.dll... 100% Extract: LICENSE.TXT... 100% Error creating shortcut: C:\Documents and Settings\Virgilijus Trasikis\Start Menu\Programs\Notpod\Notpod.lnk Error creating shortcut: C:\Documents and Settings\Virgilijus Trasikis\Start Menu\Programs\Notpod\Uninstall.lnk Created uninstaller: C:\Program Files\Notpod\uninstaller.exe Completed

Hi, a couple of users have mentioned this issue on the mailing lists as well. It looks like it might be related to access restrictions on your computer and that your user does not have privileges for creating start menu links.

What you can try is to run the installer as administrator and see if it's then able to create the shortcuts.

Tried it as admistrator and still the same problem (instlled the latest version).

Not sure what the problem might be then... What you can do, is to go into C:\Program Files\Notpod, right click Notpod.exe and choose Desktop under Send to. That will give you a shortcut on the desktop at least.
