WINDOWBLINDS 4 PROBLEMS

from WinCustomize Forums
Recently I've installed Windowblinds 4. Some skins (OSXP NG, iSkin, Capuccino, Cugem, NeoTao etc.) looked good on Windowblinds 3.5 but now on version 4 they are not. Standard buttons are just partially skinned (with white field in the middle of button), start menu buttons and start button aren't always skinned too.
As I'm planning to buy Windowblinds 4, I would like to know how I can fix this issues-

Did you uninstall 3.5 before installing 4.0? That could be your problem.

No, thats what I did and it is working fine. Haven't noticed anything different on the skins yet, maybe its that I haven't tried the right or wrong skin yet.

I'm having trouble with WB4 too .It's not handling shell style components well.They keep disappearing and reappearing.If i edit a shellstyle in skinstudio its gone for good even tho the code veiw is correct.

when skinning shellstyle you must save it as the same name and format etc as the original for it to appear, i had that trouble before

Thanks Dark Mist ,I was going to try making the changes at the folder and file level to keep from using skinstudio.Problem tho,i've already altered the file on some in skinstudio,original filename is gone.To bokiopaki...MyWB4 is flaking to , A simple repair wouldnt fix it.Had to uninstall AND go to the windowblinds folder and clear out the leftover trash. Hope it works.

I did uninstall all, I've restarted my computer twice, reinstalled Windowblinds 4 and it still doesn't work. I don't know what to do and where can I ask for help. I even posted on stardock newsgroup but still I got no answer.
