WB5 removes skin on restart

from Stardock Forums
Hi, I'm having a problem here using WB5...
I'm on a fresh and new installation of Win XP with SP2 here. Apllying skins is no problem at all, everything really work fine - but whenever I restart my computer, the skin is just gone again and I have to re-apply it - which is of course going on my nerves. Has anyone experienced this problem yet and is there a way to fix this issue, to be able to just look at a nice, stylish WB5 skin right after starting Windows?

free or paid version? can't tell since accessing your nick says you don't exist.

I'm having the same problem, except now I can apply any of the skins. The wallpaper will change but the taskbar and windows doesnt, I had just installed the free version of WB5 yesterday, and everything worked fine until I shut my computer down last night. When I turned it on today, the taskbar was missing the start button, the clock, and the skin wasnt applied at all. I tried to re-apply it but instead of using the skin, it was using the flat taskbar and the windows were the same way. So I tried restarting my computer, but no luck. I,m using Win XP with SP2, I dont know alot about computers so im explaining this the best I can.

Figured out the problem though, somehow the installation didn't go right. Working well now
