Fix for when Palm Desktop crashes immediately after opening

My Palm Desktop suddenly started crashing immediately after opening. I did some googling and found this weird fix. No idea how this guy figured it out but it works.

Step 1) Set properties to low res mode
Right click on “Palm Desktop” icon –> Select “Compatibility” tab
Select “Run in 640 x 480 screen resolution” flag
*This allows Palm Desktop to open. Wow!

Step 2) Open Palm Desktop (The Ironic part)
Open “Palm Desktop”
*Yes, I actually opened the program, in order to fix the problem
of the program not opening. Ironic, but hey, it works.
*If you are not able open the program, then find another way to
find and fix corrupt files.

Step 3) Repair the files
Select “Tools” menu –> “Options…” menu item
Select “Tools” tab –> “Check Now” Command button
*This should find and correct any corrupted files.

Step 4) Restore screen resolution for program
Right click on “Palm Desktop” icon –> Select “Compatibility” tab
De-select “Run in 640 x 480 screen resolution” flag
*This should let you view the program in your native resolution.
