Help With Hyperdesk
Now quit throwing rocks......
Tuesday, December 14, 2010 by RedneckDude | Discussion: Skinning
Guys, I know what you're saying, "Yuck!! Why Hyperdesk?"
Well, back when Hyperdesk started, I bought a few. I only have XP Hyperdesk skins, so here is the problem.
I apply a theme and all is well, I reboot to windows classic. I have to reapply the Hyperdesk theme every reboot.
The only response I can get from Jeff is that I have Stardock programs installed and that he can't help it if Stardock software doesn't play well with Hyperdesk. (Direct quote, BTW.)
So, if any of you out there have a solution for this, please yak back.

You could use the msstyles importer to make those skins into WB ones and so avoid the need to use Hyperdesk at all.
As for the comment from Jeff, sounds like an excuse to me.
If WindowBlinds is not set to apply a skin it will not be doing anything to mess with hyperdesk and neither will any other Stardock software. Chances are there is a bug in the Hyperdesk patch and the OS is checking the theme before the patch is running and so detects it is invalid and so reverts to the only native theme the OS has (Classic style)

As I suspected from back when Jeff was finishing the Vista 'patch' and 7 hadn't happened yet.

A good idea would be to port the Hyperdesk theme to Windowblinds guys. For personal use only of course.
Then you would not need to worry.
