Deskscapes has stopped working

I have Deskscapes installed and using Windows 11. I wanted to change animated backgrounds and all it gave me was a static image. I uninstalled then reinstalled. Now there are no icons for Deskscapes and I'm just getting a black background.

ALL of my Stardock apps have stopped being shown as registered (Deskscapes, Start, Fences, Object desktop etc) . When I try to enter the licence keys the configuration app just freezes. Is this a Stardock server issue?

Hello Poinsettia,

We tested the server and it look like it is working. It might be on your end. Can you try again and report back.

Thank you,

I've restarted my PC and I'm still getting messages that my apps are not registered, all of them. Attempting to enter the key, or to activate them via my account, result in the registering app to 'freeze' , go into a 'buffering' mode (circle rotating) and not complete.

As an additional observation, the last attempt to activate ObjectDock resulted in an Unable to activate ObjectDock. Error code: -250 message.

I see that an identical issue arose in May 2019, Stardock said they'd worked it out and fixed it, everyone should try again, but gave no explanation as to what the issue was or the solution!

Just to confirm error code -250 or -205?
