Windowblinds going wacko
Wednesday, May 24, 2006 by Tominated | Discussion: WindowBlinds
A while ago i installed the Vista Transformtion Pack and fiddled with a setting, now windowblinds doesn't show up in the display properties and after i tried changing a theme, the borders of windows went to windows classic (not the taskbar though) and if you open something over the border, it leaves a trail. I think the setting i changed in the transformation pack was something to do with themes.

You don't have to edit the registry....once VTP is uninstalled, Ccleaner will safely remove the residual VTP entries which are left behind. All you do is scan for issues and the cleaner will remove them, with an option to backup these removed files, should you need to restore them. I'm not tech savvy and use it all the time to remove redundant reg entries, no problems.

Possibly a Sytem Restore to before installing the transformation pack could help also.
