Skin Problems

Saturday, August 23, 2008 by MopedMan | Discussion: Skinning

Every time I apply a skin, it reverts to the "Windows Classic" theme instead of the skin I apply. I'm using Vista, and have all the requirments for the skin, so does anyone know what's the problem??

fyi, i was having the same symptom when i thought my windowblinds was installed but because i had not run as admin, it did not install all components. it sounds to me your copy may be missing or unable to install some core files. if you have vista and are installing from impulse, try runing impulse as admin (even if you are on admin account). this solved the problem for me.

Until the System Info from WindowBlinds Configuration screen is posted there is not much that can be done. Please contact [email protected] with the information used to purchase your copy of WindowBlinds. They will be able to assist you.

If by "other" you mean illegitimate means...you'll find no support here.

Install the trial from Stardock or buy the software.

We have a zero tolerance for that 'other'.

I'd suggest purchasing the program.  The purchased version will work.

Amazing that people pirate software, and then wonder why it doesn't work.  Duh!
