If you get that message on Vista then check Services to see if Stardock WindowBlinds is listed.

TheDude20165: which version of Windows are you currently running, which security (antivirus, antispyware, etc) apps are you currently running and which version of WindowBlinds are you installing?

Did you purchase WindowBlinds or are you trying to install the trial version?

AHA! Found it folks -

You must go into Windows Security Center, then click "Windows Defender" on the list to the left. When the Defender window comes up, press "Tools", then click "Options."

De-check the box marked "Real Time Protection". Do this before you install windowblinds - then reboot after install. It should install fine.

The Real Time Protection option in Windows Defender has nothing to do with this WB problem. I unchecked the Real Time box and turned Windows Defender off completely before I installed WB and I still get the reboot message every other time I launch WB. When launched from the program's original location WB loads but cannot/will not change the skins.
