Uh, oh! WB5 wasn't an option for me earlier on SC but 10 minutes ago I saw that it was listed under Demos. I unloaded WB4.6 then uninstalled it through SC and rebooted. When I went back to SC to install WB5, it was no longer listed. The option presented was to download WB3.0!
What did I do wrong?

Yes, which is why he said "hasn't bought the program" (should have been haven't, but anyway . . .)

#113 : in fact to be sure WB5 will correctly install itself, i unload WB, turn tha appearance to "Windows Classic", reboot the PC, uninstalled WB 4.60 (all the skins are kept and still avaible), delete some files left in the WindowBlinds directory, reboot the PC, then installed WB5 (which will ask you to reboot also)

darkboo: You were only allowed to use the 4.6 shareware version for 30 days, we just didn't enforce that limit - though a few features did get disabled after 30 days.
If you like the software then please help support development & purchase it. If everyone uses the shareware version & never pay for it then why would Stardock make new versions?

mulcifer: are you sure it is installed in the same directory as your WB skins are?
Denon36: Those who get a free upgrade will be given access to that later today. Don't worry!

Denon36 - when you bought 4.6 did you get a link for SDC? did you register your WB through SDC? if you got SDC then you want to download through SDC - turn off 'show pre release'

darkboo: No, the 4.6 version if you read the EULA states you may use it for 30 days after which you should purchase it.

If you have version 4.6 and bought it after September 1st was it? then you will get the link or SDC will have the Update button activated in a couple of hours, im living in the east coast of canada, and if Stardock is located on the west side of the US, then its only Noon where they are, so its just turning into the afternoon, so give it time people, its Day 1 of release, its not going to disappear after today is said and over with. these guys have worked a long time on this product, so please have some patience.

Thank you LittleHalfPint for the heads-up! Got it! Everything in WB5 seems to be working fine so all is well here! (Whew!) Now it's time to really explore my new toy.
