Sunday, March 2, 2003 by Gauch | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk
Hey all, Im knew to this who idea of skinning windows. I am running windows 2000 on my computer along with window blind v3.3. I see a lot of downloadable skins that say they are only for window blinds 4. I went to download.com and could only find v3.5. Whats the deal with this V4.0??? Is it worth the upgrade...why?? and where can i find this mysterious v4? Thanks for your help

"just call me a guinea pig."
Well - not that I really want to contribute to this - when you consciously make the choice to run a beta, or even worse, alpha level program, that's exactly what you are. When you choose to run software like that, you /have/ to realize that Bad Things (tm) can and every likely will happen. If that's a problem, or you can't handle it or anything - you don't run the software until it reaches a stable, release level.

why do you have to reformat from scratch... that's dumb... you don't know how to use safe mode... hmmm... if you have any problems with WB4 it would never make you have to do that... that is your choice... you should try booting into safe mode... and uninstalling WB4... that's what I would do... 
makes sense... or delete the current skin from it's directory under the administrator name... and then it will reset to windows classic the next time you use that name... just my thoughts...

Cheer up kind folks...
Angel_Wings never uses Alpha/Beta stuff any longer...except for my beloved PSP of course...()
Hey, smile...-And children, this is a 'reminder'... the 'system restore' in WINDOWS XP is NOT useless... it will save your ass in a jiffy...and bring your system back to it's 'previous state' if you F-up. Click on system restore...save before installing and voila...you can go back in time if need be!
Angel_Wings is done spoutin' the wonders of XP!

Yeah Shmoopy, I already suggested that.
Can't say how many times just restoring saved me.
