WIndowsBlinds and Windows 2003
Sometimes it works and some times it doesn't
Sunday, October 29, 2006 by snowleopard77 | Discussion: WindowBlinds
Ok, I am not sure what I am doing wrong, but in the past windowblinds has worked with windows 2003 and I just rebuilt my pc and now I can't get it to work.
It installed fine, I can download skins, and when I apply the skins, the colors change, but the skin does not load

I would update to WB 5.1 and see if that works for you. Some of the earlier builds did not always copy a required file on Windows 2003 machines.

I am in the process of upgrading, but in the mean time, can I manually install the missing files from my archive

I suspect the file was never downloaded to your PC as the installer did not need it. All you need to do is install WB 5.1 from SDC.
