My guess would be.... IT WANTS YOU TO BUY THE PROGRAM!!

Also.. It was pretty rude of you to start so many threads on this. Prepare for heat.

Well thankfully that error was fixed by someone in the know. Really dont know how that happened?

Anyway, Im not ready to buy the programme and didnt think it was necessary. I might in the future but not now, only just started using this site and not ready for the investment just yet.


Is there a quick fix for this pop up I am receiving please?

There is a way to get rid of the splashscreen you are seeing. BUY THE PROGRAM.

Hey now guys, no need to be pushy. He's entirely withing his rights to test the program for awhile and see the benefits over time.

Unfortunately, there is no way to remove this popup besides purchasing the program. However, you are free to continue using the trial for as long as you wish. Take the time you need in order to assure yourself of the value of WindowBlinds. I would suggest purchasing an Object Desktop from www.stardock.com instead, since it comes with WindowBlinds along with about 25 other programs, for only 50 dollars. Hope you hang around WinCustomize alot!

Cerebro,
Sorry, I took a tad of a 'tude when I saw that he had posted like 5 threads back to back on this. Each one had a slightly different title so I didn't think it was an accident.

That's understandable, but you will be running into another problem soon.
As a non-subscriber to this site, you will reach a download cap soon, which means you won't be able to download unless you subscribe.
Purchasing the WindowBlinds program will give you unlimited downloads.
Also, with the trial version you are missing a lot of the good features the full version has.

Once you get used to changing windows using WB its tough to go back to plain old XP. I love being able to have a different look when I choose, as the default look is awful. Most skins are not too odd that you have to adjust how you use your computer, in fact many help make it easier to use.

Phoon, no worries, I had a similar reaction... I just waited a little while before I posted to make sure I could keep it positive.
