Updating the Updates Comment
update,reboot, delete, repeat
Wednesday, January 31, 2007 by Phoon | Discussion: Stardock Support General
First off, let me say that I am pleased that recent issues in Windowblinds are being taken care of so quickly.
Here's my suggestion though.
Tonight, I updated Windowblinds, and rebooted. Then I went to eat supper. Upon returning, I opened Stardock Central and was greeted with a prompt for yet another Windowblinds update. I ran it and once again had to reboot. The reboot I understand and accept as the nature of the beast.
However, I don't use the default skins that come with Windowblinds and I delete them right away. Don't get me wrong, they're fine skins. I just don't want them.
Would you please separate the additional skins from the core Windowblinds package and give us the option of downloading them if we choose?

Gee...that means I must be a few updates behind, then....
I tend to lose track of what is/isn't in the default.....I end up with a squillion wb's, anyway, just checking them, etc...

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!! 
So I put off 5.49nb.039 update last night after the reboot frenzy.
Tonight, I updated, rebooted, deleted, sorted etc and went to have a smoke.
Found a great blind and superbly fantastic wall to create the most exquisite desktop..
(god, my back hurts when I kiss my own ass like that)
Thought to myself.. hmmm.. Self... you need to get Right-Click reinstalled. So, self clicks on Stardock Central..
BAM!!! Gee, I bet you can't guess what's been updated again!!! You guessed it.. WB 5.49ob.041.
I'm going to go update now, have a pack of cigarettes, do some shots of jet fuel, break into uncontrollable sobbing and change the under things....
