WindowBlinds 5 [Beta] OEM is installed Please uninstall from Control panel.

January 29, 2007 8:50:32 AM from WinCustomize ForumsWinCustomize Forums
Trying to update Windowblinds 5.49a.021 to 5.49j.034; I receive the error that I must uninstall the beta OEM from add/remove programs. This should not be the case because it does not exist. I'm updating through SDC. What is the recommended course of action?

If HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Stardock\ObjectDesktop\WindowBlinds is removed via RegEdit.exe, SDC will have no idea there was a previous WB installed. Not sure why it would reference the OEM build if you were using the previous 5.49 beta.

It does this also with Theme Manager.

Thanks, all set now. Un-installed through SDC and re-installed.
