Window/Taskbar vansihing

from Stardock Forums
I just purchased the Object Desktop package and finding it a worthwhile purchase. Unfortunatley, I have one major issue with WindowBlinds

When I click on any of the menus (File, Edit, View) at the top of certain windows (Window Explorer), that window, the taskbar, and the icons on my desktop will vanish and then the taskbar and the icons will come back, but the window is gone. If I right click on the taskbar, the same thing happens (the same window will disappear).

I went through all of the probrams to see if they were responsible. But when I unload Window Blinds, the problem goes away. I did reinstall it and tried it with a skin that came with it, but the problem remains. I don't know if it's causing problems with a setting in another program because I don't recall it doing this when it was first installed.

My system information from Window Blinds:

WindowBlinds version : WindowBlinds 6.01 (build 40 x86)

WindowBlinds is installed correctly on this PC
WindowBlinds appears to be activated on this PC
Your machine supports per pixel borders on WindowBlinds skins.

Do you have nvidia nview enabled?

Disabling that did the trick when the same thing happened to me

  That did the trick. Thanks for the help. Is it the entire nView that causes a problem or just a specific feature? The only reason I "really" use it because it adds a feature to the top of the window that will move and maximize a window to my second monitor with a click of a button!

As far as I can tell, Window Blinds or the other programs don't have that (though I am sure it could be added with the next build?

I probably shouldn't quote myself, but I think I disabled all of the of the options for nView and the problem still happens. Don't know if nView gets updated with new patches from nVidia? Well at least the problem is solved, though a minor one has taken it's place.
