Window Blinds Won't Retain Setting

September 8, 2010 10:59:44 AM from Stardock ForumsStardock Forums

Hello,

When I load a new skin in Window Blinds it won't retain the setting. For example: I use the desktop called "Encounter." Often, however, when I boot the machine it reverts back to the old Windows desktop or it enlarges the icons across the quick launch bar.

Has anyone else experienced this problem? if so, how is it solved.

Thanks!

Gareth

No, I haven't seen that happen on my computer. 

You should probably email support@stardock.com for assistance.  You will want to give them as much information as possibly like what OS and version of WindBlinds you are running.

As Philly said it would help to know what OS and WB version you have. Open WB config and click on About WindowBlinds. Copy and paste the info here.

Are you saying your desktop doesn't load at all or just the wallpaper is black?
