On 7 64 bit, with ODM, I got the error, but no notice to reboot.
Downloaded from the store, my account, no problems.
ODM is buggier than a roach motel...lol.

Installed latest WB on Windows 8.1, in ODM it shows version 8.06 installed, yet when I do an About Windowblinds in the program itself, it still says version 8.05 is installed. CRAZY!

ODM bugs are all over the place...lol..
Sometimes a shower helps. Fill that tub up outside and give it a try.
Back to the topic. Updating to 8.06 was the first time in over 7 years I couldn't use it without putting in my reg number. Must be something new. I always up dated and was good to go.

Well I guess we seem to all be experiencing different things, I updated and did not have to put in my registration number. Wonder what is going on?

My desktop on Windows 7 says 8.06, my laptop on Windows 7 says 8.06... my desktop on Windows 8.1 says 8.05 even though 8.06 is installed.

No problem here, Although I'm still on Win 8 not 8.1.
