Please try purge and reinstall steps as mention here : [Link]. Just make sure to redownload the latest version from your account page. Reboot after the purge. Reinstall and reboot again after the installation. Retest and report back here.

Also, need to know your Windows full version and OS Build number.

Thank you,

Hello,

The problem is back after the recent Windows update. 

The problem is not just limited to "save" or "save as" dialogs. Any daughter window of any application is affected.

This time the problem doesn't go away even after purging. 

I think the bug need to be fixed at fundamental level to avoid these issues after every Windows update.

With this problem, many apps are rendered useless (as you can't save or open). As such I've uninstalled the program and waiting for a bug fix to reinstall it. 

I have six licenses of WindowBlinds.

The latest 11.06 released yesterday resolves this.

We have implemented a more generic change for this.  For some reason Microsoft are adding new theme parts to explorer all of a sudden.
