AHh Impatient133, I was hoping that I could give good news today. Found out how to stop TU U Sytler functions. I do hope you find the solution to this. That looks dog ugly that Classic/white stuff. I will have to reinstall WB 7 a third time, and try it again. Wish me luck. I wonder if I will be able to reinstall ut a third time? I hope there isn't too short of the number of installs I can have. I dread to got through the black hole again. <

[quote who="Jafo" reply="21" id="2962636"] Almost a dead certainty that is your problem... [/quote] Hmmm, here's to some verification from DC 133 that he has TU U or some other Visual Styles kind of functions all ready running. I hope to hear from the TU U support on how to "turn off" the Visual Styles functionality. Not willing to part with the whole thing though. I rather depend on some of it. Beside, it was there first before WB 7.

"question again.....have you ever installed any other customization software? (non-Stardock)" I would say a big bingo on that. But, funny, in my case, I immediately uninstalled the WB and rebooted (x2). I was given back my orginal Visual Style that TuneUp Utilities 2010 had put up. That and the fact that the 'Edge' skin I tried to put on the desktop was mostly there (no taskbar or start menu). This makes me think that it may be ja WB originated problem.

I almost thought this was my post. I just posted it yeasterday, but I hadn't seen it yet. I HAVE this every same issue since I installed WB7 and I had to uninstall to get it back the way it was. I did this twice and won't reinstall, until I see a solution. I was thinking it may be another program I am using, that does Visual Styles. It is called TuneUp Utilities 2010. This program is what got me intersted in customized Desktop's and

I guess it would have been much better if, 5 days ago, Customer/Tech Serivices would have just made a terse announcement to answer to say that it going to be there, or whatever. I would have avoided going to the community for help to begin with. Especially, when they probably couldn't really say how it will be resolved. I must be spoiled. I am used to such things being done in software organisations. I have learned so much. Jafo, please...

If you are nervous about using a Beta you can simply wait until the software goes Gold, however it has always been the case with skinning/skinnable software that people have been eager to access/test products whilst in beta OR alpha. GUI modifiers tend to be at the pointy end of software use/development.

New User here, Does anyone have information on why Desktop X was not in my applist (in My Account)? It was in the advert and with the "Buy" button, which warrents/oblicates that Desktop X would be an app I would be getting. I hope to the good Lord that this isn't a bait 'n Switch. So, hopefully since I am not getting a response from Support, someone on this forum/blog may be of some help. They do have a number I think, but, I really would just like wh

Hello, I just bought Object Desktop. I was hooked with the three programs I wanted was included in the subscription. One didn't show up in the list of downloads and I am thinking of a bait and switch, at least from my point of view. Desktop X is the one app I wanted besides WindowBlinds 7. Fences Pro, I just installed last night. It's is a simple, useful program to have. I haven't had it but for a day, but I like it though. I was

Comment on Support email: Yeah, I sure know about being put to the back of the line. I waited 1 1/2 weeks on a Presales question. I waited another 4 days. Even if it is a Customer Service Pre-Sales, that won't change it. I mean, look how long it took to just purchase the thing. It just looks bad to a new customer, that's all.

[quote] Don't know if you went the Impulse route or what. [/quote] Well, when I finished the purchase transaction, on the bottom of that page, I was offered two buttons, I pressed the one that took me to my stuff. Forgot what the button said on it, but "poof" I am there at a list of a lot of softwars. So I am downloading a few. But, now that you mentioned Impulse, maybe leaving that button there isn't a good idea. Listen I did get the email receipt and link

Ahh, so hocking your warez as if you are just a paid user of this "software". I think that maybe that was a mis-step by itself...no insult meant. Maybe it is best to find other vehicals of advertisment. I personally have issue with Softpedia as well. If one would know how easy it is to get thier warez up there for download. Just a site that is not a 100% IHMO. Get on places like my fav MajorGeeks or some others with a good grasp on what they offer users to

I am buying Object Desktop, which has LogonStudio Vista (& XP) in it. Should I reframe from using it on Windows 7 Pro x64 OS ? If there is still incompatability issues, Why would use this in a suite, to which a majoriety use a Windows 7 OS?

BootSkin Vista is downloaded with the Object Desktop "subscription" download. We are told in the descriptions/product information, that the suite (meaning ALL) is compatable with Windows 7 (I have Pro x64). This thread is dated last year, SO I would like to ask again: Is BootSkin Vista compatable on Windows 7 x64, as advertised? Please does anyone know or can clarify for use who are buying the OD product. Thank you all very much! [e digicons]:zoomba:[
