New User: How to install WindowBlinds for multiple users

Saturday, February 19, 2005 by Dopey Dukey | Discussion: WindowBlinds

I just downloaded the trial version of WindowBlinds and I like what I see. I instaled it from a Windows 2000 administrator account and it works fine in that account. When I log into my second account that doesn't have admin privileges I am unable to use the program. Did I miss something when I installed the program? Is this a limitation on the trial package? I need to know that I will be able to use it for all accounts before I commit to buying the full package. I probably will purchase Object Desktop today if I can get past this one niggle.

Thanks,
CB

It probably did not work because you "instaled" it from a Windows 2000 administrator account. If you had "installed" it from this account it may have worked.

You should check YOUR own spelling before you cast stones upon others.

I have the same problem. I can't get the program to work outside of the administrator account.

Trying giving your other account admin, then install it there. Once installed, go back and change the privileges.

Right click on the WB icon in the tray. Choose configure windowblinds. If it doesn't open to the skins, click skins on the left. Pick the skin you want, the click apply this skin now on the right or apply changes on the left.

If the skin you have is not installed & you have it saved as a .wba, double click it and it should load into window blinds automaticaly. Then you'll get a ballon message saying new skin installed. If you click the ballon it will change to that skin automatically.
