sixtytwo how long have you had the shareware version loaded on your computer?

So that we understand correctly, you open WB configuration click on a skin and hit apply and it goes to Windows Classic?

sixtytwo - how long did you have previous trial installed?

Ah, that maybe the problem. I don't think you can install more than one trial, legally that is.

bah, 2nd time it worked
and my friend does same thing 30 day one twice and the first time this hap and he fixed it but hes gone

sixtytwo, the whole thing about a trial is that it is supposed to give you a short time to see if you want to purchase the software. Your friend was doing something that was not right or legal. Don't follow his lead.  (:(

I had the same problem... But now its different, everytime I apply a skin it doesnt change anything unless i kill explorer.exe from task manager and start it again or restart windows... If I start any application after applying the skin, only this app gets the new skin.
I have the 30 day trial and there's 30 days left.

whatever your friend was doing, it wasn't "legal". The whole idea behind a 30-day trial is that it only works for 30 days. You can't simply just click on reinstall and have it work again. It's not designed that way.

As for the $20, well, I suggest saving it......or getting a paper route!
