Bart, Yes, WRI made a change and didn't tell anyone about it (As far as I can tell). In the Autoload folder make a new Kernel folder. Then move the Init.m file from the Autoload folder to the Autoload\Kernel folder. David Park djmp at earthlink.net http://home.earthlink.net/~djmp/ From: Bart De Vylder [mailto:bart.de.vylder at pandora.be] To: mathgroup at smc.vnet.net I run Windows XP and I recently upgraded from Mathematica 5.0 to 5.2 (student version). It seems to me that the file HOME\Application Data\Mathematica\Autoload\init.m is not read anymore by the kernel, which was the case before the update. The autoload path is {FrontEnd`FileName[{$UserBaseDirectory, "Autoload"}, CharacterEncoding -> "WindowsANSI"], FrontEnd`FileName[{$BaseDirectory, "Autoload"}, CharacterEncoding -> "WindowsANSI"], FrontEnd`FileName[{$InstallationDirectory, "AddOns", "Autoload"}, CharacterEncoding -> "WindowsANSI"]} Maybe not important, but the file init.m contains: AppendTo[$Path, "C: ... \\My Documents\\Mathematica files"]; but the $Path symbol does not contain this directory Any comments or help is welcome, Bart De Vylder
