Taskbar keeps disappearing
Monday, June 12, 2006 by Kuruus | Discussion: WindowBlinds
For some oddball reason, and only on my computer at work, I keep having the Taskbar menu simply disappear from my desktop. I highlight the "start" button and the Taskbar menue pops up only as a vague outline of the right and top bar. If I move my cursor into the menue then the items pop up but their backgrounds are clear (you see the wallpaper beneath and not the color of the particular WindowBinds that I'm using. If I right click on the tool bar and unlock then relock the taskbar sometimes the menu comes back as it is supposed to and other times it doesn't. Very freaky and seems to happen with every Windowblinds that I use.
Any ideas?
Thanks!

It has been working just fine and only recently started having this problem. Thought it might be tied to one of the WindowBlinds upgrades. ???

I had a similar problem a few days ago after upgrading WB with last beta. I say similar because in my case it doesn't happen with all the themes - only with vista style themes (ex. Vista Theme by Milork). After downgrading WB to the last release everything is OK again.

6 June 2006 is the date of my wblind.dll. Also the problem comes and goes. If I unlock and relock my task bar it sometime fixes it. And it seems to disapper most often after I open Stardock Central or Wincustomize Browser for some reason.
