Cursor FX

March 30, 2014 9:49:24 AM from WinCustomize ForumsWinCustomize Forums

I am unable to load cursors because of "sig.bin".  How do I fix this?  Thanks.

Did you try uninstalling and reinstalling Greg?

Yes.  And there is no "sig.bin".

True, there is no sig.bin. Maybe a borked download? Try downloading it again. Run CCleaner before re-instaling then do a reboot after the install. Hope this helps.

It should be located at c:\Users\All Users\Stardock\CursorFX\

 Try install it again then registered with your ID and No.

Have you activated the software?

 

Your sig.bin is created after activating. It should be placed here: C:\ProgramData\Stardock\CursorFX - on Windows 7.

"The product appears to be validated but the machine SID doesn't match. Try deleting the file C:\Program Files (x86)\Stardock\CursorFX\sig.bin and re-activating."

What you'll want to do is delete the sig.bin and start the software again to then activate once more.

I do have a sig.bin in the Avast file but not in the CursorFX file.  The Avast sig.bin I cannot delete.

There's your problem. Turn off Avast before you try to activate CFX. You may need to whitelist CFX in Avast if the AV continues to cause it problems. Avast used to be a good choice, but with all the additional software updating it now pushes on you, constant prompts to "Upgrade" and other errors it caused running DesktopX caused me to replace it .

Go here http://www.IObit.com

Download Advanced System Care (ASC). Very good anti-virus proggie.

or here http://www.Malwarebytes.com

Another good A/V proggie

Here as well. http://www.threatfire.com/download/

I use all three. They don't butt heads, there are no conflicts and Threatfire is designed to work with them.
