from Stardock Forums

Hello, I'm using hibernation because I need to restore my opened windows after switch on my PC, but WindowBlinds having an issues after restore my PC from hibernation, apply theme manually is helps, but only 1-2 times and reboot every time is impossible for me as I says. I've made a screenshots to demonstrate what I means:

My custom WindowBlinds theme looks like this when it's okay:

But after hibernation it looks like this:

Thanks in advance and long for the answer.

Hello,
Sorry to hear you are having issues. Need to know few details.

  1. You on Windows 7,8,10 or 11? Also need its version and OS Build number. Please use Winver.exe
  2. WindowBlinds version number.

For your issue, after you restore from hibernation, if you do Restart Explorer.exe, does the issue resolved itself? Ref link on how to restart explorer: https://www.howtogeek.com/198815/use-this-secret-trick-to-close-and-restart-explorerexe-in-windows/

Thank you.

Wow, thanks for extremely fast answer. Ah yes, I thought that WindowBlinds 10 is only for Windows 10, it's Windows 10 Pro for Workstations 22H2 (19041.vb_release.191206-1406) (checked with Windows 11 too), WindowBlinds 10.89 (064 - Windows 10 Edition) - 64 bit OS if it's important.

Didn't think about restarting Explorer before, nice idea, thanks, but I need to wait some time when it's broke again because I've made a restart to make a screenshot while it's working.

Yes, Windowblinds 10, if I remember correctly work on Windows 7,8 and 10, but not compatible with Windows 11.
