If you create direct shortcuts to the Ecco and Eccoext executables you 
get rid of the annoying "Please wait while" thingie.  I could never 
figure what that "reconfiguration" did, but I have Ecco running very 
well in two Win10 machines (one even an Apple MacBook running W10) 
without the need for any reconfiguration every time I load the program.
