HELP with do....

Wednesday, December 31, 2003 by Lady Aarielle | Discussion: Stardock Software

Hi all-
I'm having a problem downloading again. I cannot download unless I do it through my "WC Browser". Furthermore, the skins downloaded with the browser do not show up on my "WB Config", nor in "skin studio" if I have to alter something.
I am a level 4 user. Not only can I not download but as soon as I sign in the ratings disappear. This has been an ongoing problem since summer. Someone helped me straighten it out before but it's happening again and it's getting to be a real nuisance. > Please help.

OK... download this (it is a direct download) http://storage.stardock.com/files/stardockcentral111a.exe . Un-install SDC thru the Control Panel. Delete this folder C:\Program Files\Stardock\SDCentral and re-boot. Install your downloaded file and let it auto update. After it updates (you may have to open/close SDC several times) re-boot again and see if the correct versions of apps now show. One thing to do before all that is check in SDC Tools/settings/Connection and make sure you're set to the "Atlanta' server.

Damn the server changed....make sure it says California1

California 1 is correct

Yes...do the un-install

Yeah...I thought that might happen....Go into C:\Program Files\Stardock\SDCentral and double click 'Unwise'

If you double click on that file in the above folder it should give you a dialog box to un-install. If you want, you can copy the 'Install.log' file from the same folder to the root drive. It would be C:/Install.log. and then go thru the control panel to un-install.

OK...let's try one more way and then we're going re-install SDC right over the one you have. Copy both 'Install.log' (which you already may have done) and copy 'Unwise' from the SDCentral folder to c:/. What you should have then is C:/Install.log and C:/Unwise. Double click on that 'Unwise' file (C:/Unwise) and it should un-install. If it does not then install the downloaded SDC file right over the one you have and re-boot.

Wow...that's amazing. OK this will take awhile (I'll take that time to sleep). but using SDC un-install each program and when your done, re-boot. Open SDC and Refresh App Data. It should now show correct version numbers to install. If it does...install everything and WB will work. If not then we're going to have to figure out to dump that SDC proggie. When it's all said and done, I think SDC is the under lying problem (while the wrong versions of some apps are not letting WB work correctly). If the wrong version numbers come up again then delete that C:\Program Files\Stardock\SDCentral folder and re-install the downloaded SDC again (do not re-boot until after you re-install). If you have any questions, ask now or it will have to wait till later today.

BTW: you can use this if you want and it will un-install Stardock software (use which ever you want)https://www.stardock.com/files/odnt_zapper.exe
