Open the WindowBlinds Configuration screen and click on "System info" then click the "Copy text" button. Paste that info here.

WindowBlinds version : WindowBlinds 6.01 (build 40 x86)

WindowBlinds is installed correctly on this PC
WindowBlinds appears to be activated on this PC
Your machine does not support per pixel borders on WindowBlinds skins.

This is because :

Your computer graphics hardware does not support acceleration of per pixel alpha.  WindowBlinds requires this for per pixel alphablended borders as without it performance would be poor.  Please see if you can obtain new drivers for your graphics hardware.  Recent ATI & NVIDIA boards should support this feature.  Onboard graphics tend not to.

It appears you have enabled limited per pixel mode, so WindowBlinds will support per pixel, but with no hardware support.

Uninstall this version and install trial or purchase full version from Stardock. No legit version of WB has files dated today as the 2 from your info are.

May be a good idea to uninstall this version and reboot. Run a scanning program to ensure nothing was left behind and then as Cavan1 suggested, either install the 'trial' version or purchase WindowBlinds.

i still find it humorous when a person using a warez build of windowblinds comes here for help. suppliers of warez apps should furnish a support forum for their stuff, don't you think?

It's worth the money to have a legit copy.  Plus, you get support and updates.

or while you think about it... you might consider Object Desktop (it comes with WindowBlinds plus other)

 

but before you panic on the price.. consider the cost of the different apps individually and also consider that with the purchase of either standalone apps or ObjectDesktop you get a year of updates - after the year you can renew the update subscription
