WindowsBlinds Not Skinning Explorer Properly on Startup.

White ugly background kills my skin.

Tuesday, June 2, 2009 by Anonymous007 | Discussion: WindowBlinds

Hi

I'm using the trial version of Windowblinds.

I have just installed some skins for me to put on, everything seems to work fine.

not until i boot up my computer again, and i see this horrible white background appearing at my windows like this.

the only fix i haved come up is reapplying the skin, but for me it's a pain in the ass.(it does the same for every other skin)

I don't see your Windows Experience or Graphics Experience scores. Have you run the Index on your machine? If not ,run it ,reboot, then try WindowBlinds.

Hey everyone

thanks for the replies.

I think I figured out what the problem was, apparently "Styler" loading at startup causes all these problems.

I have found similar problems googling too:

EDIT: Unchecking "Style is applied at the time of starting" on Styler fixed the problem.

Thanks anyways.
