Stardock windows blinds crashing apps before launch

August 27, 2025 11:57:37 PM from Stardock ForumsStardock Forums

Hello,

 

I recently upgraded to the latest version of windows 11 and windows blinds/object desktop. I am running Fences, Start 11v2 and windows blinds. I noticed that certain apps would open for a second or pop up in the task bar but instantly crash because of my theme/skin applied by windows blinds. I had this issue also on windows 10 so I think it is more widespread.

 

I play division 2 and when I try to launch Ubisoft connect because division 2 doesn't work without Ubisoft connect, the Ubisoft app instantly crashes and does not launch. I have to manually unload the skin and go back to my default windows 11 skin for the app to work. This has became a headache, if it does not work I might as well uninstall windows blinds.

 

Anyone got a fix for this issue? Please help

Hello,
Sorry to hear you are having issues. First, please make sure you have the most recent version, Windowblinds 11.06 or 11.07 Beta. Make sure to reboot after the install. If you already have the latest version, please report back with few more details.

  1. Windows 11 full version and OS Build number. Please use Winver.exe to get these numbers.
  2. Does the issue happen with any WB theme? Including those theme that come with WB such as Acrylic 7 etc.
  3. Does the issue happen with specific application, list down these effected applications.

Thank you,
Basj,

I had the same problem with Ubisoft Connect. I excluded all of the Ubisoft exe's and it solved the problem.

We have addressed the ubisoft connect issue in the next WB update so exclusion will not be needed.
