If I run the WB config, I cant even change the theme or add skins etc. I only show 2 different skins to use. Default and Windows XP. It will not let me add skins or let alone get into my appearance settings - which is where I get the C+++ Runtime Error. Please Help, cause as far as I am concerned right now, I deserve a full refund on my purchase for a program that is obviously not working for me. I downloaded WB5 through Stardock Central, which I am paying for.. 
PLEASE HELP

Have you tried uninstalling, rebooting then reinstalling?

The error in Display Properties is somewhere between the WB 'Suites' tab (if you open it) and then open NVidia Graphic Card Advanced settings. When you open NV settings it gives a Rundll32 error. If you use Display Properties and close/open between using either (WB/NVidia) or just use the 'Appearance' tab, it works fine. It appears, on it's face, to be connected to Theme Manager and could probably give any number of different errors. The one time I 'pushed' it, it gave me a DEP error. It's done it for the last 3 builds.

We believe this is a database issue and are currently still looking into resolving it.

The next build of WB should resolve this. We have replaced the MDB based database with an ini based one instead.

Hi Neil, hope you can help me out here.
I have WB5 as well, but am also getting the problem.
You write that "the next build of WB should resolve this".
Which build is this you are referring to?
One that has already been released, or one that will be released?
