Skin Problem

from Stardock Forums
When I click to apply a new skin, it automatically reverts back to the Windows Classic theme. I've updated my graphics card drivers and that hasn't worked. Can anyone help?

Sounds like you have the trial version & that the trial period has expired.

Go to the WindowBlinds Configuration dialog & select System Information. Copy the window contents & paste them in a reply here.

Yeah I did have the trial before and the skins worked but now I have the full product they don't.

WindowBlinds version : WindowBlinds 5 (5.5 (build 92 x86))

WindowBlinds is installed correctly on this PC

Download Stardock Central, enter the serial number you got with your purchase, and while you're there, download the newest build. Everything done in one shot.

Love the thread title!

I'd suggest you uninstall WindowBlinds completely (you need to uninstall the trial version before installing the release version anyway), rebooting, then reinstalling WB via SDC (after entering your email & registration information in SDC - the currently available build of WB will then show in SDC as available for download/installation). It should work then.
