skinning errors

My blinds are having issues skinning various programs, with some it just removes the toolbars entirely and with others it fails to skin 'em - kind of annoying so I could use some pointers.

 

 

 

WindowBlinds version : WindowBlinds 6.3 (build 67 x86) - 64 bit OS

 

WindowBlinds is installed correctly on this PC 

WindowBlinds appears to be activated on this PC

Your machine supports per pixel borders on WindowBlinds skins.

 

(Plug and Play Monitor) 1 is attached to NVIDIA GeForce 9800 GX2

6.2 would.

We are seeing it we can make the installer smart and install the 6.2 files on XP 64 when you install WB 6.3 from SDC/Impulse.

Im also having the same problem, and while i cant understand the reasoning for removing support for an OS in an product update, is it possible to get a direct download link to the 6.20 download so i can have a working version of WBlinds again.

Thanks in advance

Look, I know with XP X64 I'm the odd one out, especially as many developers (including MS) don't realise it's a version of XP, that their product just will have to work on it if they claim your product is suitable for windows XP. I've kinda grown used to not expecting anything from hard- and software and vendors, but you guys did have a working product, even if it has it bugs, but it worked if I just left it alone (don't try to unload WB). Now, I'm stuck with the worst idea Microsoft's design department has ever had.

 

Please, just get me a link to a download to WB 6,2 , that version worked just fine.

an email to support with a request should get it for you - they don't always have time to stop by the forums, but they check all their emails

thank goodness... I am glad i am not the only one seeing this problem.  Version 6.2 worked well but since I updated it using SD Central, every single update has been making things worse.  Just glad I did not delete the version 6.2 from my system.
