won't save
Saturday, September 10, 2005 by ThaCater | Discussion: DesktopX
I had an abnormal exit after a power outage and when I booted up again my theme (and its backup copy) would only flash on the screen and then DX would shut down. I tried a reinstall of DX but this problem continued and now I cannot save a theme. If I exit one theme and load another the first theme gets erased. I cannot go back and try a full reinstall because my account isn't current and it seems that Stardock considers you unfit to get even the older copy of OD that was paid for and renewed once. I am on the verge of just erasing the whole mess and finding another shell. Anyone have a solution for a DX that won't save? Or a suggestion for how to salvage at least the info from my main theme?

No, I am blocked from getting anything there because my account was not renewed.

I don't have an Apperances... icon in Control Panel.
