I know you have a new GUI about to be released so I wanted to point out a few things that might make the application "Clearer" to the customers.

  1. At the bottom you allow user to check the box "Run Program at Startup". I recommend not using the word "Run". A better choice "Start Application With Windows", "Launch Application at Windows Start up"... so forth. To me, when you say Run, it kind of implies launch the app and sync. I don't think you want to imply that it will sync as you boot up into Windows.
  2. The "X" at upper right corner should kill the application completely. It is against programming standard to simply minimize the app unless that is specified in a configuration so that the user clearly understands the settings.
  3. (this is optional) Standard is to use the terms Minimize/Maximize instead of Show/Hide but again this is not that big of a deal.

    I'll retrack the third (#3) option. You are doing a Hide/Show not Minimzie/Maximize. The verbage is accurate as is. Sorry.
