This machine MUST reboot? WTH?

This machine MUST reboot? WTH?

Okay, So I tried to download WB6 and when I am finished installing it tells me that I need to reboot. I expected that, so I did it. Then when my computer reboots, it says the same thing... something about how my anti spyware programs might be causeing it to do this, so I disabled them and tried to install again, but the same thing happened... anyone have any ideas on what I should do? Thanks :)

Okay, so I'm sorta nervous though, about buying it... I mean, if I buy it, what if it doesn't work... what happens then? And if it's uninstalled or something, do I have to purchase it all over again? Or is there somewhere that explains all this? LOL

I'll try and make it easy for you. Look at the system requirements. Do you meet them? Didn't the first 60 day trial work? There are millions of users who have tried or are now using Window Blinds. What's the hesitation?

it will work
we will help
you buy it, you can use it forever - you can archive a backup using Stardock Central (aka SDC) - you can also use SDC to register your app, download and install -- you can also go to the support page and put in your email and they will send you the link if needed - - if you cross reference your account here with the one at Stardock, you can go into your 'My Account' and access your registration info in order to re-register and download via SDC

Yes, the 60 day trial worked, but I'm just nervous about paying for it and then it not working... I mean, there are always flukes. Also, what about the uninstall thing.. if I do uninstall it for some reason, do I have to pay for it again?

Make a backup archive copy with SDC. You can use it forever if you want. You can remove it from your current machine and install it on a new one, if you get(and you probably will get) a new rig some day... at no extra charge. These are good people here. I've always been able to get help whenever I've needed it and quick too! I'm no system moderator just happy customer, honest.

No, you've misread. Read the license agreement. What I said is accurate. One copy, one machine, one user. New machine, remove from old machine, install on new machine. License is transfered to the new machine, no problem.

I'm sure there was some other language in this thread. Gutterese, I think or maybe it was smack or trash, not sure. But since the man said
