WindowBlinds breaks Windows Explorer for some reason

WindowBlinds breaks Explorer

from Stardock Forums

Yes, this actually happened. I was installing WindowBlinds and then when I applied the "Presicion" theme, the taskbar started to have random light blue spots on some buttons on the taskbar. And shortly after that, explorer restarted itself. So I decided to restart my PC, and is still happens! Then I restarted explorer again. I still encountered the same problems! I tried to right-click the taskbar to change some taskbar settings that probably might work, the right-click menu showed this:

Broken taskbar right-click menuAnd yeah, I was pretty surprised when I saw that. And also, the taskbar now looks like this:

Yes, this a real screenshot. And here's a note: I applied a crack to WindowBlinds

And if anyone knows how to fix this, please reply to this post.

Just so we are clear here, you are using a cracked copy of WindowBlinds and are reporting a bug?

A bug which is probably because you are using a cracked version of WindowBlinds.
