Nice skins ID! :)   Any chance of finding out what changes occurred in v8.02 though? Would be really nice to know.

I got the same thing, error code 123. Before that, after the download ODM stopped working and had to close.

Do you get the same \ any error when downloading from your account page?

Just to let everyone know I downloaded from ODM without any problems (Win 7 64 bit system).  This was before the announcement thread was posted.

I've checked fresh and upgrade installs with ODM. The install error is from the setup program, indicating there was a decompression error (either from AV or something munging the file slightly or a lack of free space). 

You can download directly from your accounts page or https://stardock.cachefly.net/WindowBlinds8_setup.exe

I had no error code, but I did get this, both on 8.1 and 7. Caused me to have to redownload and reinstall.

Downloaded from this link ^, clicked on the .exe, window opened and clicked on run,,,nothing happened. I waited like three minutes. Anyway...went to the store and my account and downloaded Windowblinds_8.02_setup_sd.exe (the one from the link is listed as Windowblinds8_setup.exe). Uninstalled Windowblinds, rebooted, ran CCleaner, reinstalled Windowblinds, rebooted and I didn't even have to backup my skins, which I always do, and I'm good to go! I love this stuff.  :grin:
