WB6 - After rebooting losing skin on taskbar only

What version of WB did you have before?

The first release of 6.0, 6.0.04 I think, something like that.

Hello,
after updating from WB 5.50 to 6.0 lately, I discovered exactly the same issue! In particular, I tried out the Vienna2 skin. I found that by replacing the file 'Vienna2.uis_BLOCK.WB4' in the theme directory with the originally downloaded version of this file, the skinned taskbar was restored. I wonder why this file gets modified after installation of the skin, but is seems that something is going wrong, then?
I hope that there will be a bugfix available soon, otherwise I'd like to go back to version 5.5...

Kind regards

We currently have a possible fix for this undergoing testing.

Out of interest, do you have norton AV installed?

Yes I have Norton AV2007 installed, could this have an issue with it? Here is what is currently running in memory, that runs at every boot

Hey man, you're in the wrong thread, the ones having this problem are over there: Weird problem since updating to WB 5.92.090

WWW Link

My situation exactly. Stand by. Admins. are working to find the prob. even as we post.   

   

Thanks for the pointer, however by the title i'm not sure anyone would have assumed that their problem was being addressed in that thread, and I don't seriously think you're suggesting that anyone read every single post in every single thread to see if it applies to them, that is up to the thread author to make sure the title is more descriptive, in my opinion.

But again thanks for the link, there is good information in there...

Still Active

Same problem here; no WinAmp, No Norton

I looked on the WB History page; saw a request to post what kind of AV I use. I use AVG, updated daily

Tks...Fletch

I've been having the same problem with the taskbar not being skinned and dissapering in the config image.I do use Symantic Norton Security Online. Is there a problem with that? I have to open the affected skin in Skin Studio and resave it to fix every skin this happens to. I would appereciate any help.  

The new beta on OD seems to have fixed the problem here, so far so good...Thanks all for the info and Stardock for getting a fix out quick.

Yeah ao far so good! I've only rebooted once though..So I'll give it some time. Thanks Stardock!  

It's good to hear that things are working better for some (hopefully all)  

If anyone does still have this problem, please write in to support@stardock.com and please reference this thread.

Thanks!
