Why Do I have ShadowFX if I don't have it listed in My Purchases?

from Stardock Forums

Hello, I bought Start10 like in 2016 still using it. It's great and i have Shadow FX too i noticed , but i look in my account it's not listed in my purchase history. So i wonder how i got it. I did buy a Object Desktop subscription( i wasn't sure what that was for but i did buy it and it now and probbably since long time it has said EXPIRED).

Does SHadow FX come with Start10 or why do i have it?

Hello again. I read some thread i found through Google( from this forum) from about 2023 were people were asking if ShadowFX was part of Object Desktop( which like i told you i bought before) and i kind of got a Clue why i have Shadow FX. They said it hasnt' been part of OD since 2019. I installed Start10 and Object Desktop Shadow FX probably at the same time 2016. But like i told you my Object Desktop now says Expired. If Object Desktop which has Shadow Fx expires, wouldn't Shadow FX also expire? then how come it still there and working in my system along with Start10.

Hello,
I believe, you can own ShadowFX by purchase it as stand alone or though Object Desktop subscription. When your Object Desktop subscription still active, you could get to ShadowFX download link through Object Destkop download, something like screenshot below. If you wish to get it again, you should renew your Object Desktop Subscription.

Thank you.

Object desktop expire don't mean that the software that came along with it expired too if you're on classic subscription model.
