It's fine. There was a packaging update and the versioning was set poorly. I'll get it corrected Monday. 2.12 is current atm. There will be a 2.14 before the end of the month with some updates to trial/activation bits, but no Fences changes. Kris
It should be happy now. Version in the db was set to 1.41.1 rather than 1.41.0. Kris
I have slipstreamed up a build with a fix for this. Redownload 1.40.1 from your store page at http://download.stardock.com or grab from https://stardock.cachefly.net/Start8_setup.exe Kris
It'll probably be 8.03 when it's released officially. Kris
I have updated it for a future (post 1.31 release). Thanks! Kris
WindowBlinds 8.02.1 is available as a beta installer from http://download.stardock.com for registered users and Object Desktop customers. This build fixes Chrome painting issues when running the latest dev-channel version of Chrome.
That's going to have to wait till tomorrow morning for someone to dig into it. Sorry. Kris
I've reproduced it (on R2 as well). Odd, as all the other ones are still working. We'll see about getting that patched. Kris
I've checked fresh and upgrade installs with ODM. The install error is from the setup program, indicating there was a decompression error (either from AV or something munging the file slightly or a lack of free space). You can download directly from your accounts page or https://stardock.cachefly.net/WindowBlinds8_setup.exe Kris
The installer from the update page will no longer show the cross-sell by default. You can also set DisableCrossSell=1 at HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Stardock going forward. The Start8 installer on the store and the update page has been updated to support that now, but only for downloads after this post was made. Kris
DeskScapes 8 would be dk4 and Fences should be fences2. Kris
Change to Version=1.05 at HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Stardock\Misc\Decor8. Kris
It's actually the registry key being out of sync from the installer. Let it update again and it should stop yelling (I've put a new installer up with 1.05 for the regkey, no code changes). Kris
Yes, WB8 supports 8.1. There's a few little glitches, but by and large it's happy. We'll tweak next month. Kris

We are going to tweak the detection/prompts for a forthcoming DeskScapes 8.1. Kris
One of our VMs hung and there wasn't anything directly monitoring the images/skins downloads URL's off it. I've kicked it and things are back in gear. I'll see what I can do about another monitor next week. ty, Hankers. Kris
The 1.1 update will include a better method for this that Norton appears to be happy with. Kris
The changes I mentioned in my last post did _not_ go into the beta update today (oddball AV issues are odd). The ones in the .zip file should still work around the issue, as should making a shortcut to launch LegendaryHeroes.exe directly (not through Steam). Kris
