How do you get WindowsBlinds to not autostart?

May 11, 2006 5:04:47 PM from Stardock ForumsStardock Forums
I am planning on doing a windows repair. I don't want to uninstall Windowblinds but don't want to have it running through this process (and with all the reboots from installing drivers). I don't see any option to turn it off (not un-install) and not have it start back up with a reboot. Am I missing something? How is this done?

Open WBConfig; in the Skins window, slide the scrollbar all the way to the left, select Windows Classic & Apply This Skin Now. Reboot & you should be good to go with the Classic Desktop.

I know about that. But I don't want WindowBlinds loading at all when I'm doing the repair. How do I turn it off and not have it come back on with reboot? I know I can click on "unload windowblinds" but it's just going to come back on at reboot. I want it off completely and then manually turn it on again after the repair. Is there no option to not have windowblinds autostart with windows?

Follow the instructions given by Daiwa. That will stop WindowBlinds from loading at start-up.

Yeah, I should have been more explicit - that indeed keeps WB from loading at startup. To get WB running again after you're all done with the repair, you'll need to go to Display Properties & select WindowBlinds, then a skin, from there.
