In regards to WindowBlinds not letting you get past the reboot message. I have one thing to say. Quicktime. If quicktime is installed that is the reason why your WindowBlinds will not work. I had this exact same problem on my Vista Home Premium system. I uninstalled Quicktime but it still would not work. Why, because Quicktime over writes system files needed by Windows and WindowBlinds. Over writing these files to suit it's own programs preferences makes it impossible for WindowBlinds to load.<b

Does anyone know where I can find a Windows Aero skin that works perfectly in Vista? The reason I ask is I have Vista Premium but some of my software does not skin in Windows Aero properly when I don't have WB running. When I load WB the transparency and all the features of the skin works perfectly in all my programs. So I am looking for a Windows Aero skin that will give me the look and feel of Vista for WindowBlids. I've found skins like Arrow and Vista Perfection but they d
Good point, Vicsan. Not all skins work properly in Vista. Due to the way the start menu is built some skins will not skin the all programs scrolling section right. I know this because I downloaded a few that did not work right. WinCustomize should have a section just for Vista WindowBlinds skins. that way we know for sure they work right. That way we don't have to waist our time downloading and getting our hopes up that a skin we liked works when it doesn't. For the most part,
I have the same problem too but no one will give me a clear solution and stardock customer support won't respond to my emails. Does ANYONE have a solution to our WindowBlinds problem on Vista Premium?
Microsoft Windows XP Build 6000.vista_rtm.061101-2205 Why is it saying Microsoft Windows XP here? It should say this ... Windows Vista (TM) Home Premium Build 6000.vista_rtm.061101-2205 I will do my best to try and help you with your problem. Thanks man.

Ok Shelbygt_the_Car~! Here's what I have done. I have turned off Defender. Turned off AVG Anti-Virus. Turned off UAC. Uninstalled WindowBlinds. Rebooted. Set Windows Vista Theme to Aero. Loaded SDC and reinstalled WidnowBlinds. Rebooted again. Program still won't load past the reboot message unless I double click all the exe files in the program folder and let them do their stuff in the background. Then I loaded wbconfig.exe and it ran fine, but will not allow me to apply anything when
I believe this problem is designer error. If you look there are other Vista skins out there that skin that area correctly.
You say that Adobe Photoshop CS2 does not display properly...? When you installed it was the UAC [User Account Control] on or off? You say turn off UAC? How do I turn off UAC in Vista Home Premium? In answer to your questions, I have AVG 7.5 Free Editon Anti-Virus and I am using Windows Firewall. Windows Defender is turned off. As for Photoshop CS2, it is the only CS2 program that will not skin properly and this skinning i
Thanks. I did actually get an autoreply, but I still have not received any solutions yet.
I've already tried that last week. They won't or just haven't yet responded.
I had the same problem when I first installed WB 5.51. AVG saw wbload.dll as a virus so I hit ignore, disabled AVG and reinstalled WindowBlinds and AVG hasn't picked it up as a virus since. Although I still cannot get WindowBlinds to work on my Windows Vista Premium system. I still get the Reboot message every time I attempt to access it. Neil, any idea why? All the suggestions I have read about don't help. <a href="https://www.stardock.com/products/sdcentral/" title="Posted vi
Oh, and by the way. The reason for my wanting to install WindowBlinds on my Vista Premium is because I use Adobe CS2 Suite and CS2 does not skin properly with the Windows Aero Theme. So I'm back to using Windows Basic until I can get WindowBlinds to work properly and then I can use my Windows Vista Skins that I have.
Sorry Ron5, I cannot copy and paste the information you request because I can no longer get into the WindowBlinds Configuration screen. I keep getting the Reboot message. I keep turning off my anti-virus, turning off Defender and rebotting and going to the program location and double clicking on the wbconfig.exe and I get the reboot message every time. If the wbload.dll is out of date then how do I get a new one? I downloaded and isntalled the program from the 6/19/07 update from SDC. You would
The Real Time Protection option in Windows Defender has nothing to do with this WB problem. I unchecked the Real Time box and turned Windows Defender off completely before I installed WB and I still get the reboot message every other time I launch WB. When launched from the program's original location WB loads but cannot/will not change the skins. <img src="http://images.stardock.com/sd/SDC24.gif
I have rebooted multiple times and still the same problem. I have uninstalled WB and reinstalled it from SDC and still the same issue. The system won't even let me in until I navigate to the program folder and double click on the wbconfig.exe file. When I attempt to use the shortcut it gives me the never ending reboot message. I heard a while back in a Windows Vista Traning class that there is a Secure Desktop option that can be turned off to allow your software to run without problems, but I ha
Can anyone solve my problem? I am running Windows Vista Home Premium and Stardock Central. I installed WindowBlinds 5.51 from Stardock Central. I got the reboot message and continued to get the message every time I rebooted my system. I had all my anit-virus/anti-spyware and windows defender programs turned off during install. When I click "I'll reboot later" and then go to the program location and double click on WBconfig.exe WindowBlinds loads. When I click Apply Skin on any of the skins WB on
