Where are windowblind themes files located when installed
Tuesday, January 23, 2018 by Minion_Bob73 | Discussion: WindowBlinds
I feel pretty stupid for this but it's a new computer. I have windowblinds on it but can't remember where the themes are saved. I did unhide hidden files in windows explorer, still no luck. Will someone please help me, would be very appreciative. Thanks anyone who helps.

C:\Users\Public\Public Documents\Stardock\WindowBlinds
Yes Dave.
Also for Win7 they have a second location. // Libraries/Documents/Public Documents/Stardock/WindowBlinds
Why all these files are stored in 2 locations I have never understood.

The libraries are virtual locations, they don't exist physically, they are organizational groupings. If you delete the files from the first location they will also be deleted from the second - the files aren't actually out there twice.
Libraries are a "feature" for your "convenience" (confusion).

Thanks everyone, one place I didn't look. Why in the world there in public folders is confusing. Now can someone explain why I copied all my backed up wb and that won't show up in the program.

Click the Gear icon in the top right hand corner and select Rebuild list.
I think that the Public Documents is for other people that log on can access them.
