Windowblinds 6.1

Starts in 8 bit color

from Stardock Forums
For some reason every time I open up Windowblinds it changes my display settings to 8 bit color and the top few inches of my
screen go black. I then have to right click on my desktop>graphics properties>display settings and reset the color to 32 bit, hit
apply and OK, then it will display properly. Next time I open Windowblinds... 8 bit color again!

I'm showing Windowblinds 6.1, build 55x86 if that helps. Windows XP.

Any ideas?

Idunno... What is it? I just downloaded a WB6 update from Stardock Central on Friday I think.

There was an update on thurs/friday for 6.1

I assume it was also pushed to SDC as well as Impulse.

6.10.084 released version - yes - 7/10/2008

WB shouldn't be messing with your color bit

did you do a straight update or uninstall, download/install new?
