Hello. I purchased Windowblinds 7 Quite some time ago. I downloaded it via the email sent to me and activated it in the little popup that comes up when you run it for the first time. It ran and worked, except when I changed any skin, it would reskin the startbar to Windows Classic, indefinitely. I was bothered by it for awhile and tried default skins and downloaded with the same result. I figured I'd give updating a go to see if it was fixed via an update. So needless to say the update link took me to impulse, and I made an account and downloaded it, etc. When I went to update Windowblinds, it said it wasn't registered and must be registered. I entered my serial number, as well as the email used to register both accounts, and selected desktop > Windowblinds 7 and hit Register. I am currently being stopped at every step (No firewall, I uninstalled my AV, ran as an administrator and tried compatibility modes..) by the error message "The serial number you have entered is not recognized by Impulse. Only serial numbers provided by Stardock will be accepted.
Please check your selected product, email address, and serial number, and try again. (Ref: 2)" I have checked all of these, and verified the serial via the retrieval function on Stardock support. I made a trouble ticket quite some time ago in an attempt to get this sorted out, as I love the program and would enjoy a change from Windows 7's classic... Design. The ticket number is SWN-984297.
I will actively monitor this and greatly appreciate any and all suggestions.
Thank you.
