Maybe Neil can hook me up with the updated wblind.dll. If it's working for you folks, I'll give it a try.

Everyone here is running WindowsXP. Curiously, it doesn't appear that users running Vista are experiencing this problem. It seems like since the beta update that moved the skin directories to the Shared Documents folder, when WB6 loads at startup, it cannot locate the graphic files necessary to skin the taskbar and start menu.

OK Neil, bear with me here... I started futzin' around with the computer when I got home from work.

The only changes to system software has been with WB6 (updated to the official release via SDC).

Is there anybody still out there... I have been following this thread since it started. I too have been experiencing the same great features... eh issues that all of you have been experiencing. It is now 2 days into the official release of WB6 and I am still coping with the "unskinned taskbar and start menu trick" that has been plaguing you folks since the "let's move all of your skins somewhere else" beta was released.

According to Stardock, there is no Windows XP 64 bit version of WB6. I guess Stardock just cut us 64-bit XP users off at the knees. By the way, WB6 on 32-bit XP machines isn't exactly a smooth ride either IMHO.

Am also having the same issue with downloading... D/L gets to 100%, then starts all over again (both servers). Have to cancel D/L to stop it. Rebooted system, restarted SDC, same problem.
