WindowFX Transitions

January 26, 2020 6:55:00 PM from Stardock ForumsStardock Forums

Hi,

does WindowFx transitions still work currently?

I don't see any window animations on my last registered copy, nor the demo version.

The Preview button animation does work, but other windows do not.

 

"Desktop Window Manager (DWM) is enabled"

OS Name Microsoft Windows 10 Pro

Version 10.0.18363 Build 18363

System Type x64-based PC

Name NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2080

Hello,
Sorry to hear you are having issues. But, on my system WindowFX v6.05 Animation Still work. (DWM enabled).

Recommend to try the purge and reinstall steps : https://forums.stardock.com/485903/windowfx-support-faq#reinstalling

Just make sure to re-download the latest version from your account. Reboot after the purge, reinstall and reboot again. Retest and report back.

Thanks

I ran the purge, reinstalled the demo - this time it actually asked me to validate via email.

Unfortunately the behaviour now is I can turn on window fx via the slide toggle, set a transition, and then try and minimise but the window fx slide toggle literally disables in front of my eyes and no animation happens.

Hi there. I repeated the procedure again and this time it took. Seems to be working fine now. Thank you for the assistance, I'll keep that little purge script handy for the future.
