Common Dialog Error 0x2

from Stardock Forums

Hello folks.

I love being able to have Windows 11 look a bit like OS/2 2.1 (I'm that old) but... it breaks just about every open / Save As dialog on the system... On SciTE, i get a "Common Dialog Error 0x2" but on most applications (Chrome, Firefox, Any Office 2016 program, paint.net, etc...

In fact, I have had to exclude the CONFIGURATION program for Windowblinds, or the dialog to select a program to exclude fails.  I think this is a bit much!

...so I have to exclude every program i actually use.  No fun.  Plus, none of the settings in the exclusion settings (except totally ignore this program) seem to do anything.  For instance, selecting "Just style the titlebar", which would be fine, doesn't just style the titlebar, it still styles everything. 

Some help would be appreciated before I fork out £20.  

Thanks!

Is it just with that skin?

If so what is the name of it so we can investigate as that's very much not normal.
