Question aboout WB and IP in Stardock Software WinCustomize Forums

I have a friend who is interested in trying WB and IP (only) , maybe eventually buying WB.... my question: does she need to download SDC or can she just use those two programs as stand alone programs? I had a related problem way back... that's why I'm asking. BTW, she's more of a newbie than I am, if that's possible. She's not interested in "Object Desktop" so I'm not sure if she needs to download SDC or not. <img src="http://images.stardock.com/images/smiles/notsure.gif" border=0

You're a genius!! Soon as I installed the "Component Tray" it went away!! Now, I can really go play with it!!! Thanks again!! This time it only took 36 posts.... That's a definite improvement!!

Do strange things just happen to me??? I logged out on IE and SDC, then I killed the cookies. Then I click on SDC icon to open it and I'm signed in already.... that's not supposed to happen is it?? I expected to have to sign back in?!

What?? I'm writing this from SDC and it says "Welcome Lady Aarielle", and when I click the software button it shows page cannot be displayed. Also,when I open IE I'm logged in there as well. Am I missing something?

OK, I'm gonna do it!! Just so I do it right after I buy it should I just come back here and ask you what to do? Or do I just follow on-screen instructions? I had a very bad experience one time that I installed and uninstalled a lot of stuff.... my PC didn't like it and I had to do a whole system restore.

No, the only thing that I have purchased so far is IP, WB, and WC Subscription. Since my area is not computers and I am a newbie at this, I figured I'd just get a couple of easy programs and see how I did. However, lately I've been thinking of getting Object Desktop.... but I'm still not sure I would know what to do with all of its components. But, I'm getting braver everyday!! <img s

OK, SDC is now: Version: 1.92[b].61, build 50 However, DX still does not show a newer update. BTW, is there something I need to do to get SDC to look like before? For instance, "software button", check for "pre-released versions", etc.?

OK, I did as you said but SDC looks so different... it never looked like that before. Click on my name... I'm not sure what you'll see today, but I took a pic of SDC and what it looks like after the download. If you can see it you'll notice it's version 1.91 build 40.

Yesrterday I installed DesktopX and now when I try to download themes I get a window telling me that the theme was built with a newer version of DesktopX. SDC version: 1.32.275 DesktopX version: 2.10 I went to Stardock to check and this seems to be the latest version?!
