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.

There was a suggestion in the forum on your previous post suggesting you install Stardock Central and getting the latest Windowblind update. Perhaps this would solve your issue.

Support ticket number = #TSP-405134
Hankers;
1) I do not want to add additional bloatware to my system just to get your program to run. Is Stardock Central a required component of WindowBlinds? Didn't think so.
2) If you peruse your own forums you might notice that other people are having the same or similar problems with the latest release of WindowBlinds. Version number is not the issue.
I would have no problem contributing positively to the community if this was open source or freeware. But in the rare event that I buy a program, I expect it to have been completely debugged and work trouble-free right out of the box. Send me a refund and erase me from your forums, and you'll never see me again.

The forums are user supported. You made one post and blew off what was suggested to you.......after that it's unlikely anyone else would make an effort.
