Colour adjustment doesn't work in 5.01m (beta)

New beta build 5.01m[b]. Problem, the colour adjustment doesn't work. The preview shows what the skin should look like, but actual skin is still showing the original colours. Rebooting doesn't help. Skin in use is Buuf OS.

Using Windows XP Service Pack 2 on Dell P4 3.06GHz, NVIDIA GeForce FX 5200 drivers 91.47

Tested with Buuf using HSL based colouring with no problems. Unable to change color using the change colour button
Tested with DogmaX4 and it coloured both ways.
Only HSL based colourion worked with VistaPlus too.

Hmmmm . . .

Well funnily enough Stardock Central disagrees with you, says I'm running 5.01m[b].017. Have only ever updated through Stardock Central, nowhere else and definitely updated when latest build was available.

Yep. 5.01m[b].017 is the latest.

SDC says I am at 5.01m[b].017. Files dates don't match though . . odd.

Time for an uninstall/reinstall.

Then WB should be showing 9/21 dates

I haven't looked into it much and admit to have used WB very little (with limited knowledge of its config settings)... but I can confirm an issue as I just went to 5.01m[b].017 last night and on reboot the setting I use "Force the skin to have the colour even if it doesn't explicitly support it" shows correctly in the preview, but has no effect. Like it wasn't checked.
