That version of WindowFX is not compatible with WindowBlinds 5.xx. You need to download the latest Beta version of WindowFX 3.0 through Stardock Central.

The current WinFX beta (2.89[b].003) is compatable with the latest WB5 beta (5.00b[b].002).

I's use SDC to get there and try again.

The system settings page in the latest WindowFX 3 (32 bit) (2.89[b].003) beta does not work fully.

I can not check the box to have it start with Windows nor can I uncheck the box to show the icon in the tray.

Well, I got it to load on startup by uninstalling it, installing a backup of last year's model, setting it to run on startup and then installing the new model.

But the system settings page is still not uncheckable.

Yeah. That's been reported on the WC General forum.

Betas . . . what can you do?
