WindowBlinds 4.3 Purchase Question

Not exactly sure on the answer but If you are going to buy the full version, get the full objectdesktop suite. With that you will get full updates for at least a year, maybe 2. I think its only like $20 US more for the full object desktop vs windowblinds stand alone. There is so much more than windowblinds in the package. No Im not a salesman for stardock , Everyone will agree with me. Alot of people have regreted not getting the full deal. They purchase the progs individually costing themselves alot more than nevessary. Good luck!

ps a wincustomize subscription comes with it too.

What NightTrain said...get the whole package...it makes more sense moneywise and you get more bang for your buck!

ObjectDesktop (ODNT) https://www.stardock.com/products/odnt/features.asp is $49.95, but it includes a boatload of software and is definitely worth the purchase price (the individual programs total close to $200. The ODNT subscription allows you to upgrade to any version that becomes available throughout the 1-year subscription, including beta builds and major version revisions (example WB 3.5 to WB 4.3). After the first year an annual subscriptions can be purchased for $34.95. If you just purchase WB 4.0, you get all the minor updates WB 4.3 to 4.4 to 4.5, etc.), but won't be eligible for a major update unleass you buy a $10 upgrade. Hope this helps clear things up

ps a wincustomize subscription comes with it too.

When you purchase any Stardock software, you get unlimited downloads here at WinCustomize, but it is not a WinCustomize Subscription. A WinCustomize Subscription https://www.wincustomize.com/resources.asp?cmd=5 is $19.95 for 2-years and in addition to the unlimited Downloads, you get two premium WB skins, and you become a user level-4, which will allow you to rate other work on this website.

Object Desktop= Best deal around. GET IT!!!

I agree with everyone here that Object Desktop is definitely the best buy, and worth way more than the cost of a subscription. But to answer your specific question, this is from the WindowBlinds FAQ at Stardock.com:

What versions is my license valid for?

If you bought WindowBlinds on it's own you will be eligible for all updates until the next major version change. For example, if you bought WindowBlinds 3.0, you would be able to get WindowBlinds 3.3 now, and 3.4 in the future, but not 4.0 or later versions. For a limited time, WB 2.x users were able to upgrade to 3.x for a reduced price - this is likely to be repeated for current users if/when WB 4.x is released.

If you bought WindowBlinds as part of a subscription to the Object Desktop Network you will be entitled to all fully-released (non-beta) versions of WindowBlinds that fall within your registration period - if you registered a year ago, you would have had WB 2.2, and immediate access to 3.0 when it came out as well as versions through to 3.3, but would not be able to download any future versions unless you renewed.

Hope this helps clear things up for you.
