Per Application default

February 18, 2007 7:07 PM from

This is probably a stupid question, but is there any way to change the default when I add a program under the Per Application settings (in order to not skin it)?

When I disable skinning on a program, it reverts back to Windows Classic, which isn't really a problem except for the fact that it's annoying.

I will say that this isn't really an urgent problem (or really a 'problem' at all). Is there a way that I can change the default and have it be the original Windows XP skin/theme and not Windows Classic?

I've tried setting it with the "Use Specified Skin" option, but the XP theme doesn't show up in the list.

(I'm using Window Blinds 5.0, by the way)

I never noticed that (running latest beta)

a lot of programs come with their own skin - which one is reverting to windows classic?

have you tried other options such as only skin title bar?

there's also a couple of XP looking skins out there, maybe one of those will suffice and work with the program you are excluding?

You cannot exclude an app and make it run the Windows XP Style. When an app is excluded it is excluded from skins in general.

BTW could you post the information from the WB System Information screen please.
