Just tried installing (rebooting) and uninstalling (rebooting) previous versions to see if that removed any older files which might be causing the problem. No change. Menus only appear when another window is open in the background.
Don't wish to be controversial but, it's always the same few who complain. Maybe you just don't like change? Right now I have more important things to whinge about :)
It does it without a skin loaded. Only with WB uninstalled does the problem go away. [quote] It should be noted that if there is a window over the desktop, then the menus appear. But, if there is no window, the menus are transparent. [/quote] I had this with the previous version.
Not sure... The last version I have uninstalled was dated (download) 18/03/16 - it doesn't have a version number on the file. The one before that was 10 10.0.01
[quote] Did you uninstall, reboot and then install the WB 10.49 beta? [/quote] Yes - several times. This problem was also in the previous version. I've had this since the W10 anniversary update.
Ever since the W10 anniversary update I've had an issue with menus being 'missing'. I would click on them and nothing would appear. This affects some fly-out menus added to the start menu, and similar menus added to the taskbar. I've recently realised this is a Windowblinds problem and the menus do appear, it's just that they are transparent. When I uninstall Windowblinds, the menus behave normally. The menus did show when there is a window open on the d
This is very sad news. She has been here a long time and is much loved by everyone. My thoughts and best wishes are with her.
Who cares - it's just a forum...

Although the install appears to stop it's still working. It will jump to a higher percentage suddenly rather than slowly increase the number.
Other than a few niggles with the anniversary update (see elsewhere), W10 is ok for me too. Parts of it still look as though they were designed by an infant though.
Yup, my 500Gb SSD was nearly two thirds full... It's now back down to the size it was before the update. Ta da! The other issue has returned. Menus won't open unless another window is open. No window open: Menu won't open. Window open: <img src="http://i462.photobucket.com/albums/qq343/MHather/
Just noticed the anniversary update turned system restore back on. I have it turned off because I have full backups I can use. System restore managed to swallow 194Gb of my C drive... [e digicons]8C[/e]
The old dude got even older. Is that even possible? Hope you had a great day :)

[quote] Wonder why it takes so long? Windows 10 is over a year old already! [/quote] It takes a long time to grasp how a new o/s needs to be skinned. Creating graphics is the easy part - learning what the o/s requires isn't. I will create something as soon as I know what I'm doing ;) However, things are changing so rapidly I'm in a constant phase of feeling a bit lost. I suspect most 'part-time' skinners feel the same.
[quote] I should also point out that no matter how you purchase software, if it gets broken by an OS update then you may have to upgrade if you wish to continue to use an app. This is true if it is your AV app or a Stardock app. [/quote] This is exactly why the Stardock subscription model works well for me. No matter what Microsoft changes my OD programs will be updated. [quote] After 10 years here it still amazes me how much attention Stardock pays to comments abou
Yesterday's windows update (KB3194496) fixed this issue :)
My HP printer is always telling me I don't have genuine HP cartidges in. I just click 'OK' and continue :)
Maybe if we told these folk their stupidity could be cured by drilling a hole in their head they would actually do it!
Product keys do last forever. My Stardock page lists a key for Windowblinds 1.3. I haven't had an o/s I could install it on for 15 years!
I can't see how it is different from the old Google Earth [e digicons]:annoyed:[/e]
If people are dumb enough to drill holes in their phones they get what they deserve. Nothing to do with being an iPhone user. There are a lot of dumb folk out there ;)
I have a Taskbar Toolbar linked to the programs menu so I can access programs with a normal fly-out menu. I also have 'Programs' as a menu shortcut in Start 10. Neither of these will open until I've had 'This PC' open. Sometimes they will only open when 'This PC' is open. Does anyone know what might be causing this odd behaviour? Thanks.
Select the files you want to move but then use 'copy to', selcting the destination on the new drive. That way you'll still have your originals if anything goes wrong. Once you are certain all your files are safely in the destination folders you can delete them from the original location.
