WindowBlinds trial just bricked my windows 10

from Stardock Forums

I just installed the trial of window blinds and tried to install a new theme, but it's left me with a totally black screen, I can't see anything and there is

no way to revert what it has done. It has totally bricked my windows 10 installation. Even CTRL-ALT-DEL doesn't work anymore. restarting doesn't cure the problem the

entire desktop if black.

 

HELP!! What can I do?

There's a conflict for some users with the Anniversary Update and this older version of WindowBlinds.  Boot your Windows 10 into Safe Mode and de-install the Trial Version of WindowBlinds.

 

Here's a good article on how you can boot into Safe Mode.

Boot into safe mode, system restore.

I have read that if you hold down the [Ctrl] button while you log in (I would guess while you hit the [Enter] key and afterwards), Windowblinds is completely bypassed, and you would hopefully be able to start up.

I can't really help you past that, but maybe that will at least let you get booted up until someone else comes along.

[Edit]- Someone else came along  ;)
