also maybe this can help

also i had 4.3 enhanced for a long time ...very long since it 1st came out. no updates since .just upgraded to 6.0

your files don't match what I show for 6.0 (build 32 x86)

especially the one with today's date

could it be because of the update?
also i just clicked on screen.exe in the WB folder would that change the date?

DragunStaind version 6.1 has just been released, update and post your system info again.

ok ..will do also i was just told by some 1 that PLUS is required is this true?

Who them?
It would work better if you uninstall this version and either install the trial version or purchase WindowBlinds.

PLUS?

Microsoft WWW Link Plus

No.

I am currently having this issue as well and was wondering if anything had been done yet to correct it or do i need to revert back to WB5 *if i can find it*

I am having this same issue but my issue seems to be related to RDP sessions..
Seems that when I log into my remote Vista Ultimate system at home from my work XP SP3 PC
the theme does not get applied, if I manually try to open the WBConfig it telle me I must
reboot after installing this version..

I reboot but still no theme and no WB idon in task tray, if I go home
and log into the PC locally I get the same issue no theme, manually ope config
and it tells me to reboot, but this time when the PC reboots the theme comes
up and the icon is there..

I go to my bedroom (yes I have a laptop there) and log into my Vista Home Prem
computer and RDP into the machine in other room, I get no theme and we start the
loop all over..

It did NOT do this with all the 6.0X beta versions up till this one..

can any one shed some light on this...RDP is a must for me!

(when I get home, im at work now I will post all my details here cant get the
config to open in RDP now)

Any advice welcome

Red_alert -

Your file dates do not match the 6.1 build 55 x86 version for XP.

You "got" a warez verson. It won't work, so I'd suggest uninstalling it and purchasing a legal version.

Democable -

You should update to the current version (6.1), then re-post your system information.

Hi, My problem too and I do have a purchased version. As anyone have an answer. love Malcolm

Hi, I have the same problem and I have purchased Window Blinds. Does anyone have an answer. love Malcolm

Installing SP3 has solved my problem.

The trial version messed upped my computer by removing my xp and vista themes and buttons
and leaving me with windows clasic... this is really annoying =.=

and I can't post any information since I reformatted

This sucks not even the creator of windows blinds is taking action on solving this...
and I was planning on buying it too..

Have you tried emailing [email protected]?

I'd suggest opening a ticket at esupport.stardock.com. Include as much information as you can about the problem & how it occurred including the system information listed in WB's configuration dialog.

I've also just encountered this same issue, here is my information...

UPDATE: for some reason a few skins have started to work again (the ones made by Stardock only) any clue as to why this could be?
