Help please. New skinning program trouble

July 4, 2004 7:42 PM from

System: Windows XP
Problem: I can't find my Start bar and Icons on Startup. I have no way of loading them.
Possible Cause: I was using WindowsBlinds and IconPackager and installed DesktopX and ObjectDock last night. It's possible that my settings have been reconfigured so that I don't have a start bar and can't use WB and IP. I uninstalled DX and OD and rebooted, but it didn't help.
Then I tried starting WB/IP but they don't seem to be working. I miss my Start bar and active desktop. Please help...

Have I uninstalled my start bar? The little window doesn't pop up when I try to change the settings via control panel and it doesn't show if I press the *window* button.

You unistalled DesktopX and ObjectDock, and that didn't fix it, and you say WindowBlids isn't working? I don't have a clue. I also have no idea what you mean about the "little window doesn't popup in control panel".....
A little more info on exactly what you did might help.
Do you have a restore point you can go back to?

[Message Edited]

ObjectDock - Access shortcuts and frequently used applications from an animated dock.

You've installed and un-installed to the point, who knows what's whacked now. Disable Active Desktop in Display Properties and re-install the Stardock apps you un-installed.
