Windowblinds 7 beta won't update

Windows 7

I have ObjectDesktop. In Impulse, I click 'windowblinds 7 beta update' and it says ==I am not registered. It won't download.

It wants a serial number.

I too received the same error with the WindowBlinds update in Impulse. Yet another snafu for Stardock and Impulse. It finds updates although this is a version change and shouldn't be called an update. I really don't understand  the logic behind development and release of their products. There is always a problem anytime they change a program for the better? Last month it was MyColors and now this. Sort of makes you wonder about the skill level of the people they employ.

It is a beta release for community testing. If you can't handle being a tester then don't do it.

Also have OD paid for and installed, but no WindowBlinds is available for me either.  Also, in Impulse I get msg 'update available' but when I click on it (?) (don't have) I get 'wrong serial number'.  In this day and time, it is very confusing....

I can't even see the win7 option on impulse. It did once but disappeared on my last reboot.

Your ObjectDesktoo subscription needs to be current.  If it is and you don't see Win 7 in Impulse, click on the Impulse Icon in the upper left hand corner of Impulse and make sure that you have you have 'Show pre-release versions' marked.  If that doesn't work under Preferences click on reset data.

If all that fails then you need to email [email protected].

Try right clicking on your WB7 in Impulse My Software Tab. Then select "Verify Installation". Should cause an update to happen if you're entitled to one.
