WindowBlinds no go....

...blinds indeed..?

from Stardock Forums
Hi,

Installed WB51 as part of ObjectDock2007 yesterday. Installation was no problem. But after applying a theme (VistaV2 by Adni, from wincustomize)nothing happened. Well, or WB crashes, or my desktop is reset to windows-classic, or default WindowsXP. All other (resident) WB-themes don't have any effect also.

My conf:

WB51 dump:

WindowBlinds 5.1 System Information Report:

WindowBlinds is installed correctly on this PC.

Maybe the skin doesn't speak Dutch?
Not trying to be flippant.

There have been issues once in a while with skins/icon packages/etc having issues in translation/application due to skinner's OS language vs user's

you might also ask adni18 in the comment section for the skin's page

@Bichur:

As I stated, not only Adni's skin doesn't apply, also the 'resident' skins won't go.
So I don't think it has anything to do with me or my computer being Dutch.

My bad, I misread it.

Is the ui settings set to Dutch in WB configuration?
