Do you know how to take a screenshot? I'm not sure if you can take one until Windows finishes booting. If you need to know how to do a screenshot let me know. If it doesn't work at log-on then I would suggest going to the skinning forums and asking how they show them.

I have downloaded several widgets and gadgets and started installing to the DesktopX widget folder. However during the unzipping process I am getting message boxes from time to time asking if I want to replace certain files. Should I allow or do I need to rename the file(s)? Thanks for any help!

Zubaz, Frustrating thing this install problem. I contacted Stardock support and got the standard wait 2 business days reply, but as yet (4 days) no reply forthcoming. Would I just be better off downloading the newest versions of WindowBlinds and Sound Packager and doing an install that way, and would I have to uninstall first?

WB6 won't update. It sticks at install actions. It can't be canceled, so you have to close SDC. The same happens with sound packager.

I read a trouble shooting article that said "wblind.dll becomes locked from changes if you have ever uninstalled it before", and "if you attempt to update andthis file isn't replaced...things can get funky." Should I just download the newest version

Seabass, Newbie here again. I had CursorXP Free installed and then decided to buy the pro version, which I did. The confirmation email came with both XP Pro and FX. Like the novice I am, I installed both. XP Pro first over the free version, then FX. Well nothing has worked right since in the cursor department. I didn't even know they used different file extensions. Man this is a bit a learning curve with the OD Suite, ObjectDock and the cursor programs. I'm not one of these quick

Well wouldn't you know it. As soon as I posted I got the notification, and when I came back my avatar had changed...go figure? Still, any info on the processes problem would be a big help.

I recently purchased Window Blinds, but am now considering an upgrade to Object Desktop. Do I need to uninstall Window Blinds before installing Object Desktop and if so, can I save the themes, etc. that I already have? Thanks for help, I'm a real newbie.
