Cannot access WindowBlinds...

from Stardock Forums
I installed WB and it says that WB settings (changing themes, etc.) is in the display properties, but when I go to the display properties, the buttons aren't there, nor are the themes available in the drop down menus. It's as if it was never installed in the first place, but the install completed successfully...

I am running a Dell Optiplex GX620 with 1gb of DDR SD-RAM, a Pentium 4 3.2 GHz HT procssor, integrated sound, and integrated video, but I am USING the installed video card that came with the system, since the integrated video is disabled in the BIOS. The video card is a 128MB ATI Radeon X600 SE.

Please reply a.s.a.p.
Thanks!

Did you reboot?
Did you have the trial?
Did you uninstall it?
Open up WB using the systray icon.
Click on System Info in the lower left. Post the results here.

I just rebooted...

I clicked the windowblinds icon in the start menu...

There is NO system tray icon (Observe):

There is also NOTHING in the appearance tab of the display properties (Observe):

I have uninstalled and reinstalled it TWICE.

I DID NOT have the trial version at all...A friend bought the program and it wouldn't run on his PC so he gave it to me...

PLEASE help!

Did your "friend" also give you a serial #?

Your friend should email [email protected] with the email they used to register it and your email.

Maybe you can get some help there.

Otherwise it sounds like a pirated (cracked) copy and it shouldn't work.

All I know is he said he purchased it, he sent me the installer and an e-mail with the serial...Considering him, it probably is cracked...DANGIT...maybe I'll install the trial and buy it if I like it...

It's a a great app. Worth much more than the $20
