WB keeps starting after unload and reboot

October 13, 2020 8:21:20 AM from WinCustomize ForumsWinCustomize Forums

Hi , dont know if it is WB or Curtains that is the issue, have unloaded WB , then added a curtains style, works well, but after reboot, its WB that starts, have checked windows startup, cant see it there...

just found that windowblinds service was still running, will try a reboot after I stopped it.

Hello,

The WB service will continue to run with WB installed and it does not hurt any Curtains functionality if left to do so.

Probably that it's Windowblinds that loads after reboot and not the Curtains style applied just before.

Prodably that it's Windowblinds that loads after reboot and not the Curtains style applied just before.

That was not said nor should that be the case.

Again, the WB service starting is not an issue - or - should not be.  If you are seeing something wrong, that a Curtains style is not still being applied upon reboot, perhaps a WB skin is, we need to know that.

If you just dont like that the WB service is starting, for whatever reason, you can set it to 'manual':

Yes, now we know the problem...

What version of Curtains (About tab in UI, 1.10 is current, 1.11 is in beta)?

When you restart, and the WB skin is applied, is the Curtains service running?

This morning , looked like both WB and curtains were running , had the start button with color from curtains, but the rest was Cressida, color and everything, checked , both services was running, then did update and shutdown, after that reboot, only Curtains was running, did another reboot, with power off, now all seems good, no signs og Cressida skin, only Synthwave style...
