Skinning All But Explorer

February 4, 2008 7:33 AM from

Hi, WB seems to be skinning everthing except for Explorer windows. Any ideas? Have already installed/re-installed ad nauseum. Vitals: WindowBlinds version : WindowBlinds 6.02 (build 44 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.

(Dell 2405FPW (Digital)) 1 is attached to NVIDIA GeForce 7600 GS

Could you have accidently excluded Explorer (or Internet Explorer)?

All other windows skin?

Explorer is not excluded under the "Change the Look of an App" tab. Is there another locationa where it might be excluded? Many Thanks, kbt

Ok, it is working now. I loaded a per pixel package "Acrylic," rebooted and problem corrected. Switched back (with trepidation ...) to "5imple," and all is still well. Not sure that this is relevant, but who am I to question the power of FM. To all who are having problems, I advise sticking with it. I've been using OD for several years now -- it works well, and is a great value. Once you get over the learning curve, it will be well worth your while! Cheers, kbt
