You can access it from the text menu in the main window (the window with the enable/disable buttons).
Click "Settings" -> "Edit settings" and the settings window should pop up.

Look if you can find a Yawcam icon in the traybar (the icons beside the clock).
Maybe it is hidden to the traybar at start. (This can be changed in the settings)

Can I edit the setting in a configfile (where can I find it)?

Yes, You can edit the settings file by hand. The name of the settings file is yawcam_settings.xml and is located in your directory where you installed Yawcam. (i.e. c:\program files\yawcam\yawcam_settings.xml)

This is an ordinary text file and can be edited with your favourite text editor. (For example notepad will work.) Look for the following lines in the file:

Code: Select all

<void property="s_hide"> 
   <boolean>true</boolean> 
</void> 
If you find the lines in the file: Delete them! (and save the file)
Now try start Yawcam again.

But I'm not sure this will do the trick... If this doesn't help maybe you could try uninstall yawcam and then install it again.
