SDC not recognizing that WB5 is installed
Tuesday, October 16, 2007 by nessa482 | Discussion: Stardock Support General
I have Object Desktop and upgraded a few days ago from WB5 to WB6. Before I upgraded, I archived WB5, uninstalled WB5, rebooted, and installed WB6. Today I decided to go back to WB5 for the time being. So I uninstalled WB6, rebooted, and reinstalled WB5 from the archive. But when I run SDC, it doesn't show that I have WB5 installed, it's not listed at all under Object Desktop in SDC. I uninstalled and reinstalled it using SDC, so why is WB5 not recognized as being installed on my computer?

Could you run this file:

and either post the resulting log file here (which may be long) or alternatively send it in to [email protected] and reference this thread?

Thanks Seabass6.7, the reinstallation worked. 
I would have just tried that before posting here but I wanted to let you guys know first just in case it was a bug in SDC. But no worries, all installed applications are showing up now.
I just have one more question, I'm running Windows XP and in SDC under Object Desktop, I see LogonStudio displayed as "LogonStudio Vista". Is this right and is it safe to install on XP?

This is right off the knoledgebase so forgive me if you might have seen this before.
-Run the file here: http://sd.stardock.com/mike/apps/remove_sdc.bat
-Restart your computer
-Reinstall SDC from here: http://sdc.stardock.com/sdcentral_setup.exe
This is of course a reinstall but an efficient one. Let me know if you still have troubles.
