Reply to Rainmeter in Skinning WinCustomize Forums

[quote who="Dcrew57" reply="4146056" id="542327"] [quote who="DrJBHL" reply="4146038" id="542327"] I asked ChatGPT your question and got the following response: "If you mean Rainmeter skin: yes. You can build a Rainmeter skin as an all-in-one skin—for example, one package/skin that contains the clock, weather, system meters, CPU/RAM, drives, network, shortcuts, media controls, etc. If you mean one single .ini file, that's also possible, although for a com

Reply to Can't download in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

I guess I was confused; I was thinking that it was a weather skin I was trying to download, as it is uploaded under Desktop Gadgets, but it's really for the old Yahoo widget platform widgetsus.exe, which I already had. By the way, when I load Yahoo widgets, the weather widget does not work for me; I cannot change location, and even the default location is not showing weather information. If this refers to the the widget created <span style="background-color: rgb(255, 255

Can't download in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

Is anyone else experiencing a 400 bad request Cloudflare error when trying to download from WinCustomize? I am trying to figure out if it's a site issue or on my end. I have cleared cookies and site data and flushed my DNS cache, signed out of Wincustomize, and restarted my computer with the same results. OK, I just discovered that it might only be with the recent Yahoo Widget v.452 multi; for some reason I am unable to download that. <img src="https://cdn.stardock.us/forums/39/20/3920

Reply to Windows 10 no longer enabling me to customize desktop icons in Object Desktop WinCustomize Forums

[quote who="basj" reply="3994008" id="541755"] I tested on my Windows 10 VM and it look like I still can change it. But, do note that I am not at the latest Windows 10 OS Build. Thank you, Basj, Stardock Community Assistant [/quote] Yes, but that is for a shortcut, not for the program .exe file. For example, I installed a portable version of Foobar2000; inside the program folder, there is a Foobar2000.exe file to launch the program;

Reply to New Secure Boot Certificates for Older Computers in Personal Computing WinCustomize Forums

I might be worse off than any of you. I have an older HP computer running Windows 10 IoT Enterprise LTSC. I have not had the desire or need to buy a new computer because what I have works well. I just tried to enable secure boot in the BIOS, but when I did, the computer would not boot at all. What made my attempt even worse was that after enabling secure boot, my display drivers would not load and the computer would just send a flickering screen to my monitor. Luckily, I had enough s

Reply to Rainmeter weather is not working in Help WinCustomize Forums

xWidget has been mentioned a couple of times; just so people know, xWidget has been dead for years, as the developer, Tony, has been MIA. As someone who has made over a hundred xWidget widgets, I still use it, but the weather no longer works, so I have been using Rainmeter for weather, which I don't like all that much because of the boring weather backgrounds, but for those who don't care about what it looks like and just want the info, Rainmeter is working well, at least in my neck of the wo

Reply to Odd quirk with VLC Media Player and WB 11.07 in WindowBlinds WinCustomize Forums

I cannot reproduce that issue, but I am using Windows 10 IoT Enterprise LTSC. I am using WB 11.07, though, and when I double-click a video file, VLC opens and plays it normally. I know my reply does not help you, but it might help support if it is version-related, I doubt it is, but we are talking about Microsoft.

Reply to MyColors Themes in WindowBlinds WinCustomize Forums

You kinda of answered your question when you said "not compatible." MyColors servers are dead so you cannot install them even if the themes were compatible with W11 (at least the traditional way). That being said, I have had varying success using them on W10 with extracting the theme file with 7zip and installing the app themes individually. Worked sometimes with W10, but I don't know how well that will work with W11.
