WindowBlinds won't load

Updated to 10.6.2 and now WindowBlinds won't load. A window flashes open for a fraction of a second and closes. WindowBlinds Service is running. Tried uninstalling an reinstalling to no effect.

When you uninstall Windowblinds you must reboot your PC. Also, after reinstalling, you must reboot a second time. This allows the OS to access the files needed for WB to run. Hope this helps. If not...esupport.stardock.com/index.php?/ticket/submit

I'll write up a ticket but I'm seeing the same problem.

I've uninstalled/rebooted/installed/rebooted several times (and in different combinations - even wiping the folder) but at startup all I get is a flash of the theme selection screen and then it goes away.

Windows 7 latest SP

Nvidia GTX 960 with the latest Geforce drivers from 5/3/2017

 

Installed the same version fine on my laptop.

This sounds like an activation issue or issue with install.  Hopefully support have been able to assist.

Same here. Flashes for a second, then disappears.  Rebooting, even several times, does not help. No solution to this, it seems.

Same things is happening here, this in 2021.  The WindowBlinds flashes for an instant, then disappears. Have followed all installation instructions correctly. Mr. Rohan has stated it's necessary to create a phantom Windows user account, which am hesitant to do. And am guessing that even if the WindowBlinds does work with the phantom, I would only be able to use it there, not much purpose to that. Any other help or suggestion appreciated. Thanks and rgds..
