You write in the OP you don't have the trial version installed, but in the "About" info, I see:

Quoting idnkwtsaowt, reply 2
WindowBlinds version : WindowBlinds 7.3 (build 309 - Windows 7 Edition) - Shareware
End of idnkwtsaowt's quote

Which is it?

I do not believe you can recolor skins in the shareware.

Hmmm...... thanks, Deven. Going to ask SD Support about this in a bit.

You must remove the shareware version prior to installing the full (paid) version.

Try uninstall > reboot > reinstall purchased version only > reboot
