WindowBlinds 4 Released

Thanks for the heads up!

Well I did not see the uninstall blip until I updated over my beta.Is there any way to re-download or should I be concerned?I re-booted,although not prompted, after updating.Every thing seems ok.My version says WB4 Build 100.Thanks for any help or suggestions.

If you note any problems with included skins, you should probably uninstall, reboot and reinstall. If it all works, fine.

Ok, so we've got WB4....now give us Kryptonite!!

I also thank you for the heads up. FYI--if you have version 3.x the upgrade cost is $10.00. I've just installed 4.0 and looking forward to what it can do.

One thing - if you don't have XP, don't try to get or install WB4. It simply will not work yet (the installer should stop you, but just to make sure . . .)

win2k 'later this year' gah, the writing is on the wall for win2k users :/

do i uninstall 3.5 first?

yeah uninstall first

I just went to object desktop and windowblinds, then just unloaded windowblinds. It kept all my skins and worked perfectly.

there you go

WB4 does not show up for me in Stardock Central. I did both refreshes I could find, "Refresh Application Data" under Tools and "Refresh" under view, no 4.0 options.

It still shows the 3.99f for me after I did the above. Is there another refresh somewhere I'm missing?

Hm...OK. I changed my server to Atlanta instead of California and did another refresh and there it is. Too bad both servers aren't updated close together.

I DIDnt uninstall it, instead I just over wrote the files

w.o still says its for XP only wich is once again a big load of crap

Who is this guy?

Grim Reaper

any idea when it will be available for mass consupmtio with teh general, cheap public?

Road_Kil: A week or two, I believe. And yes, the california server was just resynched, should be showing up now. It's XP-only because people felt it better to release something that was ready for those who could use it rather than wait several months until those that couldn't, could.

Another tip for people having problems updtating via SDCentral : Clearing the SDC temp-folder (C:\Program Files\Stardock\Temp) might do the trick.

I read at the top of this thread that you should delete the alpha and betas of WB4 before downloading WB4,correct? I unloaded 3.5 but not any of the WB4 beta and alphas. DUH, how would I do that. To tell you the truth I don't know how I unloaded 3.5. The problem being I have two WB files in my Stardock Central. Don't ask me how that happened, I haven't a clue. When I would download a beta, the other would show I needed to download 3.5 and then I would download 3.5 and it showed the beta was available. If I delete one of the WB files, WB won't work. Go figure?
They both say WB4 now. It seems to be working fine. Should I leave it alone? The only thing I can't figure out is how to get Hyperpaint, or even if I can? I have a fairly new 1.20 ghz computer if that helps. Any help is much appreciated.

If it works, leave it.

The Hyperpaint option is in Display Properties/Appearance/WindowBlinds button/Basic Settings/Performance...

Idownloaded the new wb4 release now my windowblinds config screen won't come up at all & some of my skins are missing from display properties page & wont install, like XP Jeans UIS1, Longhorn4MPlex. ANy Ideas??
I also just subscribed to get the browser & the premium suite Augustus won't install either, just the icon pack.. Everything was fine with the betas I was using!!!!!!
