That is what it should show.
Sean DrohanStardock Product Lifecycle Manager

Latest release won't skin store apps as I've reported numerous times even things like control panel and the windowblinds config won't skin, I tried numerous skins all the same problems and revo uninstaller wasn't fixed. Seems like beta 3 and latest release are the same app with same problems. I'm sticking with beta 1 only problems with it are revo uninstaller and winrar.
This is on a Clean install , start11, windowsblinds, vlc and amd's software package are the only programs installed.
Works fine on my green machines though.
I'm curious as to why Fences shows a black background.

Weird, I am still getting a loss of my start button and flashing, just plain glitchyness ( I know great description.) of my taskbar. AmD software wont even open. Killing windowblinds or not loading windowblinds fixs it completely. This is on a Clean install , start11, windowsblinds, vlc and amd's software package are the only programs installed. Works fine on my green machines though.
You MUST update your version of Start11 to the very latest.
You are the only one still reporting this, even other users in the other beta threads had responded saying it was not an issue for them anymore.
I'd suggest you purge both WB and Start11 (if you are using it) and then reinstall

Is anyone reading my posts?
Did you see reply #12 I just made to you? (well, like an hour ago)

I ran both batch files a few days ago still same problems
I solved the problem I went to "C:\Program Files (x86)\Stardock\WindowBlinds" and deleted the windowblinds folder I had to use unlockit to delete the folder but all seems to be ok except I can't get explorer to use my dark background I tried bmp png and tga none seemed to make a difference, and I ran the remove WB batch file 1st then unlockit. So all is well in the virtul world at last.
A skin I made called Slick as I said the skin is working as I had to unlock the wb folderin C:\Program files (x86) and delete it and ran the batch file...everything is good to go, oh and revo uninstaller still wobbles back and forth on the screen
Why has my question fallen on deaf ears!? Reply #10, I would assume my question is just as important as the next person, I'm hearing just crickets so far, this is after several question have been given a response.....
I went through the update process using object desktop and it still says BETA 3.
I saw the issue was pick up by Support internally. I believe they are looking into it. Sorry for not feeding back that info to you.
Please try this, uninstall WB11, reboot immediately, redownload the installer from your account. Reinstall WB11, reboot and retest it. Report back.
Thank you,
Basj,Stardock Community Assistant
Got it basj, I'll give it a try in a day or two, then report back, thanks.
Finally the latest windowblinds is working only issue none of the explorer backgrounds work I tried numerous skins should the image be a bmp tga or png? it shows in sks but pressing apply no explorer background...also I got WB to settle down by unchecking all options in wb settings and advanced thnx for anyone that can help me with this and my Nvidia Geforce 1860 driver might be part of some of my problems latest driver
