ok, if I did something, swicthed the number of rows in LP forging a reboot, and when I did that Smart Shortcut popped up once LP quit, and I was able to change my settings. So for anyone having issues, one possibility would be just to quit LP while you edit the settings.
One other thing with LP: I set my screen to show 5 columns, and now when I view a folder (built in not FolderOrganizer etc) it shows it in only 4 of the 5 rows. This is sort of cool bug though, because it makes for quick 'tabbed browsing' in a way, just put the folder icons in that last right-side column that doesn't show the folder when opened, then you can switch through those folders like they were tabs.
