Wednesday, June 7, 2006 by DocX | Discussion: WindowBlinds

when Updateing to the latest windowblinds 5 from the 5 beta Im using now. It auto archives and gets to 100% and just hangs there. (using stardock central) It doesnt start d loading the new windowblinds 5? I did update stardock central before I tried this. Any ideas?

Many thanks, Mark

P.S. If this is covered somewhere else could you please give me a link.

I just had that same problem. When SDC loaded it said there was an update to WB and WinFX. I told it to update both of them. WB went to 100% and just stopped. I waited and waited, but nothing changed. I know this sounds stupid, but I double clicked the progress bar and it fired right up again and said that WinFX was complete.

I did exactly the same when my WB-update got stuck at 100%, and guess what, it worked!

I think something's tweaked with the latest WB 5. I found the update in SDC...it popped up and asked if I wanted to install it, as usual with available updates, and I accepted, it installed, said to reboot, and that's when the weird stuff began happening. See Link

and other links from there to Stardock forums (not WinCustomize forums)for clues. Now it all seems to work o.k. for me but for JJ Ying's "ecliz" WB, which has a balky Start Menu.
