Morning all

This may have been covered but I couldn't find it. I've just upgraded to Windowblinds 8. The program installed OK but when I open explorer the background is all black. icons are visible otherwise it's a blackout. Any suggestions please. I'm on Win 7 Home premium service pack 1.

Hi. For the record, I found the answer finally. For those with a similar problem go to explorer backgrounds in Windowblinds config & click "Reset Opacity Levels". Worked for me.
