Hello, I would appreciate any help. Under Windows XP I'm trying to access my applications using Object Desktop, but I always get 'Object Desktop Requires Internet Access to Login'. I also cannot activate Windowblinds 7 either. My internet connection appears to be working OK, Does anyone have any idea what the problem might be? Does Stardock still support Windows XP? I have no problems with logging into Object Desktop or activation under Windows 7, it works perfectly fine, but for some

I've noticed that it does it on every skin. As for Windowblinds 10, I already have it, but I would rather use Windowblinds 8 under Windows 7, so I can use explorer textured backgrounds. Does Windowblinds 10 now support textured explorer backgrounds? The last time I tried it, it didn't. Thanks! :)

I'm using Windows 7 x64 & I'm getting a weird shadow glitch/flickering at the right side of the start menu when I click on All Programs. After some experimentation I've noticed that if I turn off, 'Animate controls & elements in Windows' it goes away, but then I lose some animations. Now that I've noticed it, it's really annoying. I tried updating to the latest Nvidia drivers 390.77, but it still happens. I'm assuming this is a bug in Windowblinds 8.13. Does anyone know of a proper fi

I recently reinstalled Windows 8.1 and installed Windowblinds 8, but now it won't activate and just keeps saying activation failure after entering my details. Any help would be appreciated. PS Is there an activation limit for Windowblinds 8? Thanks!

Here's a fix to get back to right opening menus, but you'll need to unload Windowblinds. The problem is definitely with Windowblinds, because as soon as you re-enable it, the problem is back.

Well it's definitely the Nvidia 270 drivers being incompatible with Windowblinds 7 or vice versa thats causing the problem. I've now upgraded my graphics card to a GTX 560Ti and now I have no choice but to use the 275.50 drivers and the corruption is back. Stardock haven't been any help, just said they would pass the info I gave them onto the development team. [e digicons]>:([/e] How long will I have to wait before this is fixed?

Well I've reinstalled Windowblinds 7.2c and also went back to an earlier Nvidia driver 260.99 and so far every is working fine. Looks like it could be the latest Nvidia drivers that caused the problem, but I've also uninstalled Corecodec, so I'm not 100% sure. I'll have to do some more testing, but thanks for all your help & suggestions.

This is really beginning to do my head in, lol. Thanks for the input anyway. I always keep my computer up to date using windows update. All my drivers, .Net, etc. Since I couldn't get a hold of windowblinds 7.1, I uninstalled and went back to Windowblinds 6.4 and exactly the same thing is happening. I've uninstalled the latest Nvidia drivers, Firefox 4, Avant browser and no difference. One thing I have noticed is that as soon as I play a video the skin becomes corrupt

Just tried that now, but only showed version 7.2. I installed it anyway and rebooted, but I'm still getting the same problem.

Well I went back to Nvidia Geforce drivers 267.24 and I'm still getting the skin corruption. [e digicons]XO[/e] Surely the problem must lie with Windowblins 7.2 then? Anyone else using Windowblinds 7.2c and Windows XP with a Nvidia Graphics card and having the same problems?

I was using an earlier Nvidia driver, but I would rather not go back to an earlier driver as I play a lot of games, some of which are only compatible with the latest driver. I guess if I want to daignose what the problem is I might have no choice but to install an earlier driver, just to see whether the problem still occurs. I've been messing about for the last eight hours trying to work out what's causing the problem. I closed down every program and every running process that

I verified the installation and everything is ok and I then did as you said, but the only version available is 7.2 which is what's causing problems. For some reason 7.2c and 7.2 will not work. Like I said, 7.1 worked without any problems. I guess I'll just have to wait to see what Stardock support says. I did a fresh install of Windows XP and Windowblinds was the first thing I installed. The skins seem ok at first after I apply them, but then after a

I'm using the latest Nvidia drivers 275.27.

Well it looks like I'm stuck with a useless version of Windowblinds 7. The problem definitely lies with WIndowblinds 7.2, as version 7.1 worked perfectly. Unfortunately I didn't archive version 7.1, so I can't go back to an earlier version and Stardock won't send me this version, only the latest version 7.2c, which doesn't work, as every skin is corrupt, even the derfault ones. Can anyone else help me out. Thanks!

Since installing Windowblinds 7.2c, I've had nothing but problems with skin corruption. Basically none of the skins work anymore under Windows XP. They appear to work at first but after about 5 minutes or so, the menus and borders become corrupt. I've uninstaled and reinstalled and I've even reinstalled Windows XP, but the problem remains, so I can only assume the problem is with the latest version of Windowblinds, as it worked ok before I updated. Is there anyway to

I was using the Aura skin under Windows XP, but with the latest version of Windowblinds 7, I'm getting a lot of graphics corruption on the menus and window frames. Anyone else having problems with this skin? I haven't a clue what's causing it. It's being working perfect up until the last week. I've tried reinstalling, updating my Nvidia graphics drivers, but I'm still getting corruption on the Aura skin and certain other skins. Has some kind of bug crept into the lates
