[quote who="Jafo" reply="20" id="3612847"] Quoting Uvah, reply 18 I know why W10 is so quirky. Think about it...all the past versions of Windows were numbered and all the even numbers were crap. 95 was good...98 was so so...XP was good (number 5)...Vista was a disaster (number 6)...W7 was/is very good (number 7)...W8 was garbage but t

[quote who="Cameochi" reply="56" id="3613339"] Speccy was removed from my system as well. I have not tried reinstalling it as I really don't need it but I wonder if it would work in compatibility mode? [/quote] I just reinstalled Speccy and updated to the latest version. 1.29.714. No problem and it's working well.

[quote who="deaneades" reply="221" id="3611254"] when is the beta out for all of us cant wait lol tinbin [/quote] You could purchase Object Desktop. It is addictive and well worth the price. :-)
[quote who="Uvah" reply="212" id="3610896"] I just noticed that. No mouseover effect on the start button plus no effect when clicking on it. Running Alpha Nebula skin. Previous one was Naked Noir and on that one the effect on clicking the start button was there but no mouseover. Thanks RnD for making me look. [/quote] Uvah, I just tried Alpha Nebula and have the same issue with it. However, I am running older W7 skins with no problem at all. I skipped W8 altogeth
What Jafo said. I use Kaspersky here and I rarely have an issue but it can slow down an installation so I disable it as a precaution. So far, I have never had the issues I've had with other AV/security programs.
[quote who="DaveBax" reply="5" id="3610623"] It's always best to save your latest downloads and Odjectdock serial number in case you decide not to renew. If you don't renew then you will have them to use later. I believe it's only $29.95 to renew each year. [/quote] And well worth the price. :-)
LMAO! Jafo! Glad you "got" it.
I've had a subscription in the past but let it lapse as I was not using it. This year, I renewed it and did not pay full price and my old software packages were still available to download even before I renewed my subscription. Stardock is an honest company so hope maybe you will rethink your decision to request a refund but, of course, that is entirely up to you.
Here is something you might want to try. Uninstall WB 10, turn off your security program(s) and try again. It may or may not help but it's worth a try.
Update: I posted yesterday that I was unable to resize Firefox. The issue is now resolved. I decided to check my video driver and it was out of date so ran the update and all is well. If anyone else is having sizing issues or unexplained phenomena, you might want to check that all of your drivers are up to date. [e digicons]:grin:[/e]
I had to change a couple of backgrounds using WB10 and now they are very easy to read. They did look weird at first though.
So far, I haven't had a problem with skins running. Everything seems to be working just fine
No idea why Firefox suddenly had a problem but I can always use it again. It is still installed on my computer. I will give a vacation for a few days and see if it's happy again. I updated a couple of drivers so that may solve the problem.
Good Morning everyone, The only issue I have with the latest beta was with Firefox. It would not resize correctly. Last night, there were some additional, unrelated issues so I went back to Internet Explorer using the DuckDuckGo browser and everything is working perfectly. I really love having WB again. I am like a kid in a candy shop installing blinds and new wallpapers. [e digicons]:grin:[/e] [e digicons]:inlove:[/e]
If you check your available downloads, you will find the latest beta version of WB 10. I couldn't find it at first either. [e digicons]:sun:[/e]
No tray icon here either but I have it in my Quick Launch so not a big issue.
The newest version installed easily and so far all is well. Just so everyone knows, the new beta is under the downloads so go to your account and downloads and you will see it there. GREAT WORK, NEIL! Thanks so much. WB10 looks great and it loaded faster than before.
Things got a bit interesting this morning. I am running Windows 10 64 bit Pro here. I tried to apply a couple of different WB 7 skins and the taskbar disappeared. They were quite old so that may have cause the issue. I had a Start button and icons but the taskbar was completely transparent. I uninstalled, restarted and reinstalled WB 10 and Start 10 and still had problems. Even the WB 10 preview didn't look right. Finally, I uninstalled Start 10 again a
So far, the only issue I have is that Outlook 2010 and Firefox will not remain resized. They seem to have a mind of their own. Otherwise, WB 10 is working well. Update: I did a full shutdown and Firefox opened to the correct size. Outlook 2010 seems to have a mind of its own but not a major issue.
Just installed WB 10 beta along with Start10 and my desktop is back to its old, beautiful self. Even my old favorite WB skins are working beautifully. Start10 has made waiting for WB 10 a lot easier but it sure is nice to have WB back again. So far, everything is working beautifully and I am over the moon happy. [e digicons]:grin:[/e]
Never mind, I decided it was time to renew my subscription anyway and it's done! Will let you know how WB 10 beta works here. Thank you, Neil Banfield and all those who helped make WB 10 possible!

If I renew my Objectdesktop subscription, will I get access to the WB 10 beta? Would love that!
[quote who="Uvah" reply="13" id="3608111"] The fact that WB10 will work on all three (Win 7,8 and 10) is, in my opinion, nothing short of...WOW! There's some serious stuff going on and I cannot wait to see it. SD needs to stand up and take a bow. [/quote] And Neil will need a long vacation! :-)
I am running Icon Packager 4.00 in Windows 10 64 bit and it is working quite well. Not all Icon Packages work but enough of them do to keep me happy. I will continue to wait patiently for WindowBlinds 10 and I know it will be well worth it. Right now I am running MerryChristmas by Starone and it looks great. You may have to apply the icon set a couple of times but it works well as do some of my old favorites. Please do not hold Stardock responsible for th
