Please forgive me if I am going about this in the wrong way. I recently upgraded my computer from Windows 10 to Windows 11 and all was fine. Everything worked as expected. I had to install my regular programs which I did w/o problems. Then I added WindowsBlind. WordPerfect Office no longer ran. WordPerfect and Quattro Pro would load and then disappear. I did not make the connection. A very sharp tech with Corel discovered the problem: Windows Binds. He tried to make it possible for WordPerfect Office to coexist with Windows Blinds w/o success. He suggested I share with you folks what he learned and recommended:
Hello Barry,
Thanks for working with me today.
We tried adding WordPerfect and Quattro Pro to WindowBlinds "Do not skin" list, but unfortunately it wouldn't save the setting. For now, we've uninstalled WindowBlinds. You may wish to reach out to WindowBlinds support to find out if there's a way to get that exclusion to save.
Here are the three paths that should be excluded:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Corel\WordPerfect Office 2021\Programs\WpWin21.exe
C:\Program Files (x86)\Corel\WordPerfect Office 2021\Programs\QPW21.exe
C:\Program Files (x86)\Corel\WordPerfect Office 2021\Programs\PRWin21.exe
I'll mark this as resolved, but if you have further trouble with WordPerfect Office please let me know - I'm here to help.
Thank you,
Douglas

I had not been using Windows Blinds but installed the program with the news Windows 11 upgrade. All other Object Desktop programs I am using are working just fine.
