WindowBlinds 6.2 Trial expired

September 17, 2008 6:44:48 AM from WinCustomize ForumsWinCustomize Forums

The trial version of WindowBlinds 6.2 has expired and the symptoms of this are a message about disabling antispyware tools etc.

We will be updating the build later today.  Once it is up you will be able to download it and try that out instead.

Sorry, I am a total newb to all of this, I know I may sound stupid but what happens when the trial expires? Will your theme go back to its normal theme or will you keep your current changed theme and not be able to change it? I may sound stupid but I'm pretty sure other newbs to this would be wondering the same thing too.

When the trial runs out be sure to select Windows XP or Windows Aero if on Vista from the WindowBlind configuration screen before uninstalling the trial.

I installed the trial.... yet... lol, it never let me try it, just tells me I need to update it and so it wont work, and I didn't feel like doing it again because I JUST downloaded it and used up  a good amount of my daily net (200 megs a day)... Any help? and is there a way to keep a theme after the trail expires? Also if I have a theme from another outside program will it work on this and if not is there anybody willing to convert it?

Running Windows XP Professional Service Pack 3

contact E-Mail anarch-vixen@hotmail.com (only email me if it relates to this topic)

and yes im 100% new to this, I only wish to try window blinds because Style XP doesnt seem to work for me, lol, and plus Stardock has Sins, and I LOVE Sins.

Looks like Cnet is having issues.  You can get the correct trial here: http://sdc.stardock.com/WindowBlinds6_public.exe

Yup.

Where are you finding 4 versions of WindowBlinds to download?  Can't be from the Stardock site.

Clear your systme of all versions of WindowBlinds, run a clean up program like CCleaner and reboot.  Then go to the Stardock site and down either the current trial version or the full version.  The trial only is good for 30 days, no matter what you try and do.

Google is your best friend It helps you to find Stardock's ObjectDock on 3 billion sites ^^

Well, I installed it on a fresh, brand new Acer Aspire One Pro-laptop without any other Stardock applications. I installed it for the first time and it didn't work...reinstalled, nothing.

I think you will find using Google that some of Acer's software has a problem with Stardock softeare.  Even been some threads here in the forums about it.
