UNHAPPY CUSTOMER

Monday, January 28, 2008 by Chazcon | Discussion: WindowBlinds

I have been having problems with WindowBlinds, received no help on the forums, and still nothing from support in spite of the fact that they requested my DxDiag file (which I sent).

About half the time when I boot up the taskbar and all the menus are transparent. My workaround is to have a desktop icon for WindowBlinds next to my Start button. When this happens I have to launch WindowBlinds and re-apply my settings. This does not make me happy and it's getting very old.

Also, on some programs I use, the scrollbars aren't working correctly, when I drag the button down the scrollbar, I have to drag the mouse off the button to the RIGHT only, if I leave it on the button or (God forbid) move it into the application, the button jumps back up to it's original location. this will drive you quite insane in about an hour, trust me.
 
I'm about to uninstall and trash this program. It's pretty - when it works. Too bad this problem didn't show up before I paid money for it, I never would have bought it. If I could get a refund right now I would, good luck with that.

mitche323 - thanks for the comments and the suggestion. The lag I saw was slight, but enough that picky ole me noticed it with the more graphic intense skins. That, among other reasons, forced me "to bite the bullet" and replace the old beast with a newer unit. Don't see it anymore.

I have a widescreen LCD. I've tried playing with the refresh rate, but haven't seen much effect. Do refresh rates even apply with LCD's? Curious minds want to know

Thanks again.

DC not too funny and myself I do not care what anyone does or has to say about Stardock. For one good reason " They are the BEST! " You may not see it that way. But I've been here for many years now and plan on being here many more. Any time someone tries to customize their computer - they think everything is a snap and user friendly. You know " Like Vista is user friendly " heheheeee..... ya right it is - if you know anything about computers and such.


WHAT ?

Yeah, it was about GalCiv2's many little insects. Somehow Stardock Central threaded me here (just another bug and all symptoms in the initial post looked sooo familiar... who might think it was about another program.
