I suspect the problem isn't fixed (see below)

So in what way didn't it work?
What error message did you get?
 and at what stage?

I suspect you may have double clicked on the RPFS module and next time you
reboot it won't be loaded and it will fail.

I had this problem and tracked it down to $.!Boot not fully completing and
as ...PreDesk.RPFS is one of the last things to be run in the predesk (and
no error was being printed onto the screen) I hadn't noticed it.

renaming PreDesk.RPFS PreDesk.aaaRPFS fixed RPFS being run, now to trace
what is causing a problem in PreDesk...
