Will we have a update for Windows 10

Windows 10 Update

I would like to know if anyone knows when or if there will be a update for Windows 10 and would it be Free as I did pay already for the windows 8 version and the windows 7 version. But at this time I have software I can not use.

I hope there are updates, but I have no doubt they will be a pay to download experience as is the case for Start 10... :(

We'll have news about the next version of WindowBlinds soon. Just have to stay tuned until then. :)

There is a free alternative to Start 10 and I tried it.  Finally gave up and bought Windows 10.  It fast, easy and those tiles on the left side of the start menu are finally gone.  I am hoping that Stardock comes up with a Windows 10 version to change the logon screen and remove the lock screen.  There are scripts (apps) and there's well written software.  :-)

this is the current build for krutoniums changer.while it would be nice for stardock to reupdate their logon studio this works for now flawless.

 

for some reason he got lazy in updating his forum but this is in his GitHub and ive tested it multiple times without hiccups

 

and you can get rid of the lock screen thru regedit script script apps or gpedit easy so I really doubt all that's nessecary.im more interested in them rebuilding the stuff that matters like windowblinds and stuff instead of adding other stuff to their plate

PLEASE DO NOT ATTEMPT TO USE WINDOWBLINDS 8.x UNDER WINDOWS 10.

IT WILL NOT WORK and YOU WILL ENCOUNTER ISSUES.


Forcing the installer to think it is Windows 8 will simply make it install at which point your taskbar will be a mess once a theme is applied.

I have windowblinds 8 running with windows10 the only problem was the task bar which I hid and replaced with objectdock, some themes don't work very well, but the one I'm using works fine (Laguna by Stardock).
