StoryServer Power Tools — Show Tray, Registry-Free and Automatic USB Mode
StoryServer implements features that customers of other organizers have expressed concern about. These concerns are due to ‘crashed state’ of their favorite organizer software, and how StorySever mitigates them.
Other power tools: Tray, Keys Lock, External Graphics, Favorites and Distraction-Free
Power-Tool — Show Tray
Sometimes, Explorer crashes and the favorite tray App becomes invisible, leaving the customer unable to access the invisible App. Fear no more. When this happens with StoryServer, you have a second App handy — PolywickStoryServerShow.exe.
Starting this app allows you to force show an invisible session of StoryServer and reset application settings to default settings.

Registry-Free
StoryServer does not use any registry-specific features. It writes all of it’s configuration data to the %APPDATA% folder. (PC World — What’s in the hidden Windows AppData Folder, and how to find it if you need it).
StoryServer writes all of it’s configuration data to Json file for easy external editing or modification.

If there are Json errors, StoryServer will gracefully fail and write a valid JSON file upon Application close.
Automatic USB mode
Customers wanting to copy StoryServer to other computers in USB mode will be pleased to know, that placing the app.js file to the same location will cause StoryServer to automatically go into USB mode.

There are some caveats:
- The file path that app.js is on — must NOT be read-only. Doing so will cause StoryServer to revert back to Application-mode.
- The story-files folder must NOT be read-only. Doing so will cause StoryServer to load files in read-only mode.
