still keeping in with all skins

from WinCustomize Forums
Hi everyone,

I applied a skin with a throbber animation (Rusty Rooster in fact), and still then, even if i apply a skin with no throbber animation, i get the throbber animation from Rusty Rooster back ...
If i apply the default Windows Skin i get the default windows animation, but as soon i apply any other skin from skinners i get back with the Rusty Rooster one ...
Any idea or suggestion to fix it ? N.B: latest WindowBlinds Beta version running, but trouble since previous versions

When using the default Luna skin...Open task manager (control/alt/delete)...find explorer.exe..highlight and hit end process. Go to file and type in explorer.exe and hit OK. In esence this is the same as rebooting and should clear the rusty rooster throbber.

Open windowblinds configuration, settings,click on toolbars and select the setting you wish.
If the theme has a throbber it will be selected.

Thanks coffeegrinder, it's THE solution, it works directly on IE and needs a reboot to be working on Explorer
(so to repair the Windows default throbber you have to choose a skin with toolbar icons without a throbber a bit strange isn't it )

Then you haven't been paying attention. The Troll ain't happy unless his throbber's a workin'. The more tricks it does, the better.

au contraire.

Bill's limp throbber is the only one not worth looking at.
