WB6 and Microsoft Money

from Stardock Forums
Everytime I upgrade to WB^ when I go to start MS Money it shows it starting in a fluttering screen and then it shuts the program down. I reinstall WB5 version and it works fine.Any Ideas?

Which version of MS Money are you running?

That is definitely odd.  Let me ask you a couple of questions:

1) What OS is this on? Vista or XP?

2) Could you try running Classic (the new yellow skin taht comes with WindowBlinds). Does it still do it?

3) If yes, then could you hold down the ctrl key when you load up Money. This will exclude it from being skinned but still has WindowBlinds in control of the process.  Did that fix it?

Hi Guys,

I apologise if im stepping in out of turn but there is a thread happening here WWW Link that has is revolving around WB6 and MS applications and explorer where it just shuts down.

Perhaps you could mozey on ver there and join in on that one, Neil Blanford is going crazy i think over this problem so the more users we can get with this the more chance he has of figuring it out.

Apologies again if i have got the wrong end of the stick - you can slap me later

Cheers guys

Gill

Hi Frogboy,

Using any skin and holding the ctrl down as I open Money solves the problem.

I am using Win XP

I gues this will solve the fix for now.

Thanks for the help

I have reproduced this issue and we should have a fix in the next build.

Thanks for reporting it.

Hi Neil,I have just updated WB with the new update. Problem all fixed.Thanks for the help




Glad the MS Money crasher is fixed, but how do I get the updated WB6? I downloaded the current one (using my sign on etc) and it still crashed MSMoney 2007.

You may need Stardock Central to get the very latest betas.

Let's see . . . I bought the product but I can't get the fix -- is that about the size of it?

I'm dumping 6 until they get it together.

Do you mean you can't download Stardock Central from Here or does that mean that SDC won't accept your registration???

EDIT: Finally found the upgrade. You should put it out on the main site, huh? FOr normal humans to pick up. Or somehow have it directly available from Windoblinds on my computer, like I click "Check for Updates" somewhere and it goes to your site and fetches it. THat's what most programs do, isn't it?

It is a beta build which is why it can only be downloaded via SDC.
