Needless to say, this issue was highly confusing to straighten out on my machine particularly due to the name change from CFX Plus to CFX. I had to remove both and then do the reinstall. Why doesn't Stardocks software ever do a clean uninstall? Incidentally, I did have to manually uninstall CFX Plus.

Got the new version installed ok, but noticed something strange: The control for changing the darkness of the shadow has no effect at all. Anyone else got this problem?

 Also just noticed that the X and Y settings for the shadow have no effect either.

That change was unintentional and will be fixed in a future update.

Please consider these growing pains as we roll into SDC (still in beta).

The CFX 2.10 uninstall is likely not an issue with the 2.11 installer

Zu, the CFX uninstall problem was uninstalling 2.11, not 2.10.

I tried the store update too...same problems. If this was a beta, I wouldn't be complaining, but it isn't a beta, it's an update that apparently wasn't tested thouroughly before release.

 

I reiterate, there are mechanisms in place to handle testing this stuff....it should be used.

 

I will wait until this thread shows all is well, then I'll update.

I do.  Looking into it.  (Along with the hue shift on new install.)

I have the same old problem. The cursor goes into turgid slow motion whenever Mailwasher is checking for mail.

Going back to default cursor...  >:(

...if I could get the program to open that is...

Turgid...now there's a word.   :D

If you used SDC or the stand alone installer for 2.10, you can go back.

Checked SDC and found an update to CFX Plus - installed and found it was broken, installed again from stand alone and reboot still broken. Thought I'd come here and check the forum to see if it was just me.

Fortunately It wasn't just me, rolled back to 2.10

Clearly there is an problem with the update, but it is still being offered as an update in SDC

Don't have it. Guess I'll have to wait for the fix.

Well, at least I am not alone. I've all the same problems as everyone else.  I just did a clean install of CursorFX 2.11.  It worked - but said it was not registered.  I found my registration and it would not copy and paste from Stardock Central so I had to type it in by hand.  Stardock Central said the registration was successful but now it doesn't work again.  I can run the creator and the control panel separately but the main executable file will not run so seems not to recognize the registration file??  Hope it gets fixed soon and will keep checking back.

My temporary solution:  Made a shortcut to the CursorFX control panel and pinned it to my Start Menu.  Works fine.  Checked Startdock Central and could not find the update but it is functional for now.  :-)

This upgrade is more like a beta.

So this still isn't fixed?
