Per Applications screwed up

I purchased WB5 a couple of days ago and installed it. It seemed to work fine first but when I apply Per Applications it wont work. When I minimize a program to the tray and try to open it again the prog stops to work. I get the error "Program dont answer" and closes down. As long I keeps to one skin it works fine, but not with Per Apps. Have I waisted $20 on somthing I cant use fully?

As long I keeps to one skin it works fine, but not with Per Apps


since the 'per application' is to tell WB to totally exclude and application from being skinned by WB or to not skin parts or to skin certain part, to do this but not that or do that but not this  or only use this skin for this app = depending on what you have checked (ie settings) - I'm now guessing you are using it to skin each application with a different skin? Does it do it if you skin only one app with a different skin?


since you downloaded it a couple of days ago, I'm guessing you didn't download StarDock Central (the browser, updater and downloader)(you'll also see a full version number in SDC) - go here: https://www.stardock.com/products/sdcentral/ if you didn't get a link with your purchase.  Register your WB (and any other purchased apps or just the ODNT if you purchased the full package) and it will show any updates available for you to download...possibly an updated will fix your problem - there is one out today I believe.


are your drivers updated?

Hi again! It seems like the problem was solved with the update to 5.01. The SDC fixed the update. I have tested and tryed to provocate it but now it looks like as I said, the update to 5.01 fixed it.

thx for your help.
