Vista X64 Issues

Keeps Requiring Restart

from Stardock Forums
I installed the shareware version of 6. I am running Vista x64.
I keep getting the message that says I need to restart. I have 3 times with no luck. Also I don't have anything that is protecting the registry. All I had was AVG running when I installed it. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Have you tried disabling AVG as a test?

Did you have an earlier version of WB installed?

Have you tried uninstalling it and reinstalling it again? I solved mine with the trick.

I was able to resolve this on the test machine by a simple reinstall. If you reinstall and get the same error please let us know at support@stardock.com.

Hi there,
I'm having the same problem, keeps asking me to reboot and i have turned windows defender off and made sure my registry cleaner was turned off and i am still getting the same thing, i was using window blinds 5.5 i think it was and received the number 6 version for free upgrade and only since then i cannot use it. i am using vista 64.
I have also uninstalled, reinstalled twice, not happy.

Okay. I found out why. I was installing this from work over a remote desktop session. For some reason Vista protects the registry in certain ways when logged in from a remote location. Reinstalling while not logged in remotely fixed the problem. Just thought I'd let everyone know.
