Icon Font Size Reverts After Reboot

I'm running a purchased version of WindowBlinds 5 on Windows XP Home Edition SP 2. When I alter the font size of my desktop icons (I prefer 9 rather than 8: right click on Desktop, Properties, Appearance tab, Advanced button, Other advanced controls button, select Icon in the Advanced Appearance listbox and then set Font Size to 9, OK, Apply, OK). Within a session, the font of my Desktop icons increases correctly. But when I reboot, they revert back to 8. What do I do so that the system remembers the 9 setting between reboots?

I've been having this problem with setting the Icon Font Size for years with WindowBlinds. Now that I use 1920x1200 resolution I simply can't use Windowblinds anymore since it resets the Icon Font Size to 8 point size on reboot. Is there any solution to this problem? Thanks in advance...

You might try the "User Overrides/Font Overrides" section in the WindowBlinds configuration panel. Here you can tell Windows to increase the skins default font size by increments of 10%, which will hold after reboot until you unload WindowBlinds.

Note - you can only increase the font, and only in increments of 10%. You can also select a font. This may or may not suit your purposes.
