how to reinstall via Object Desktop

Object Desktop (seems kinda old) 4.04 4.4.8809 17031 2 13 24

Win 11 Version 10.0.26200 Build 26200

25H2 26200.7171


CursorFX wasn't changing my cursor. Rebooting, changing cursors, rebooting didnt help

Unintalled via ctrl panel/programs

 

Same issue w Fences that i uninstalled to see if that would cure my Win 11 ghost taskbar icon problem. (it didnt)

 

how do i reinstall so that it show up in Object Desktop?

I use betas if available.

Hello,
Sorry to hear you are having issues. Please try download directly from your account product download page: https://store.stardock.com/myaccount/products. Object Desktop manager should update its status accordingly. Do remember to reboot your system after doing install or uninstall steps.

Thank you,

spoke too soon.  I downloaded my separate install file for cursor but used my object sn to activate.  when i go back into object and click on cursor, configure nothing happens.  same with Fences 6.

When you use your Object Desktop license key to activate those application, does any error appear? Also, for Fences 6 if you right click on your desktop and select "Configure Fences", does the Fences 6 Configuration Windows open?

Thank you,

no error when using Object license key to activate both Fences and Cursor. I had to download the trial Fences first because i couldn thru Objects menu.

after rebooting i can access everything via the Objects menu except in the lower section, Objects Desktop Insider, there is no dropdown menu to the right of Fences 6, the way there is on my other win 11 pc. 

for future reference, is there a way to uninstall everything and do a clean reinstall of Objects, knowing that I'll probably lose my configurations?

Why you need to do the trial download, while you can directly download via your account product download page, as mentioned in my reply#1 ?

You don't see this when click on the drop down menu button?

Reinstalling Object Desktop might help resolve this issue. Don’t worry—you don’t need to uninstall your other Stardock apps, since they run separately from Object Desktop.
