After waiting a month to hear from support, I solved it myself!

It was a conflict with a programme called Direct Folders..

Purrdy I would like to do a follow up with your problems and your fix if I could to document it a little more. I couldn't find a ticket in our system under your account email so likely we never got the problem. Could you send us a new ticket to [email protected] with your WB system info and a link to this thread please? We just want to find any standing errors we can correct. Thanks much!

Thanks for letting us know.

I guess Direct Folders is trying to move some of the WBConfig child windows around for some reason.

I watched the demo for direct folders.......you might want to try RightClick.......it has all the same capabilities but works a little different.

WBlinds got ahold of the software and developed a work around. A new update has been sent. Look for it through Impulse as soon as the techs can make it available! If you have questions or issues let us know!

I just started using it myself,what a great piece of software. I don't think I could do without it now.  And obviously, no conflicts w/WB's
