WindowsBlinds 4

How Long?

Tuesday, March 7, 2006 by Linwood | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk

How long will Windows Blinds 4 be available to download from Starock Central? For some reason Windows Blinds 5 doesn't work well with my computer. However, Windows Blinds 4 works great! Does anybody know if Windows Blinds 4 only is available on CD?

I do not think it is available as a stand alone program on CD, only as part of Object Desktop.

Your best bet, and what I do, is to install WB4 (after uninstalling WB5 of course) and create an archive in Stardock Central. You can then burn the archive (which is a ".zip" file found in "C:\Program Files\Stardock\SDCentral\BACKUP" folder) to disc.

This archive can then be manually placed back in the same folder later, and you can restore the archive via "File > Restore Archive" command in Stardock Central. Note - this can be restored while offline at any time as well.

For more on archiving, you can see my mini tutorial here http://corkyo.wincustomize.com/Articles.aspx?SID=5463&AID=83629

If you have purchased WB 5 -- then you auto-matically recieve a link for downloading WB 4 too -- means you get WB 4.xx free with purchase of WB5
