What's up Dap!! Just tried your cab out and nothing happens. Sense does not restart. Any thoughts? I'm on Sense 2.5.2019.

why not just use CleanRAM?? level 3 clean will restart sense and clear up other things at same time

I don't ever need to restart Sense for cleaning purposes. I usually find restarting Sense handy after playing with Sense mods. After using CHT for a while I've come to find that restart sense button great. I don't like building my ROM based on CHT though and so I'd like to have this quick restart sense option available even without CHT.

On a possibly related note, the restart sense option in the app EndKey v4.5 also does not restart Sense on my ROM...

Here, Sharkie.
Just threw this together for ya.
Let me know how that works out for you.
If for any strange reason it doesn't work on your rom, I will find out why and make it so.
Should have no issues though.
It will install the shortcut right into the Start Menu.
If you need it to install elsewhere, I'm sure you can handle that in the kitchen. If you want or need a different icon for it, let me know that as well, if you want me to swap it out for you.

Anyway, here ya are bud.

Nope, same thing. The wait cursor shows up for a few seconds, but Sense never restarts. I wonder what it is about my ROM that causes this. Thanks for your help Santod. I really appreciate it.

OK, so I got it. The problem seems to be that in my registry at HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Today\Items, I have both an "HTC Sense" and a "Sense" key. The Restart Sense.mscr in Dap's cab refers to the "HTC Sense" key. I changed that to just "Sense" and it works perfectly.

That begs the question why do I have these two Sense keys in that string. I'll have to look into it. Thanks again for your help Santod.

Sense from OBOE (with RSSHub in home page) is code named "Sense" than the usual "HTC Sense".

You probably have a reg add somewhere in the kitchen that uses "HTC Sense" for today plugin. Hence you have two!

You can mod the mscr code to below, and it will work for both the item names. Credits to noonski...

If (RegKeyExists( "HKLM","\Software\Microsoft\Today\Items\HTC Sense" ))
    ManilaName = "HTC Sense"
Endif
If (RegKeyExists( "HKLM","\Software\Microsoft\Today\Items\TouchFlo 3D" ))
    ManilaName = "TouchFLO 3D"
Endif
If (RegKeyExists( "HKLM","\Software\Microsoft\Today\Items\Sense" ))
    ManilaName = "Sense"
Endif


RegWriteDword("HKLM","\Software\Microsoft\Today\Items\" & ManilaName ,"Enabled","0")
RedrawToday
Sleep("1500")

RegWriteDword("HKLM","\Software\Microsoft\Today\Items\" & ManilaName ,"Enabled","1")
RedrawToday
Sleep("1500")
