Problems....
Tuesday, December 23, 2008 by Gustoman001 | Discussion: Windows Vista
Well, I got Window Blinds after trying the trial version (which worked beautifully), and when I installed it, the skins wouldn't load, or when they would load, (very few actually did), they wouldn't show the "Start" button, and also affected the computer browser so it would stop after, say, going into Program Files, and would restart windows.

Open the WindowBlinds Configuration screen and click on "System info" then click the "Copy text" button. Paste that info here.
Did you uninstall the trial before installing the purchased version? If not, uninstall WindowBlinds and reboot then reinstall WindowBlinds and reboot again. You could disable any firewall and a/v prior to installing WindowBlinds and re-enable them after the install.

Download and install Impulse. Make sure your subscription to ODNT or WB is up to date, then fill in the email you used for the subscription...and should be bingo!

Ok, now it works, I guess you just had to wait a few seconds, thanks very much, guys!

Did you uninstall the trial version before installing the full version?
