No WB 7.01 beta on Impulse [e digicons]:O[/e] The last indicates WindowBlinds7 V 7.00-b-.107 from 12/10/09 BTW I got an Impulse update to Version 3/23.458 build 1309 on 1 PC and two others don't get this update and are stuck to version 3.23. 457 build 1309 That Impulse software is completly silly, Neil, please read the whole thread https://forums.wincustomize.com/369581/page
and version V 3.89 beta ?
... and it's not only reverifying MyColors installation wich brings the problem : I just update SkinStudio 7 Pro (6.96[b].021) to SkinStudio 7 (7.00.014) and as soon as it was installed (and correctly installed) , DeskScapes 3 and DesktopX 4 beta which were listed as installed and avaible for the second, disappeard from Impulse and i get now DeskScapes (not DeskScapes3 but DeskScapes) as avaible and DesktopX as installed ... (all of that without having changing an
[quote]so unless those applications were installed to the same directory as MyColors this would not be possible.[/quote] I'm sorry again but, DeskScapes is correctly installed in it's own default directory as DesktopX too ... and i get the problem described upon [e digicons]:S[/e]
That's what it does on my 3 PC's under XP SP3 french (well it does not affect DeskScapes or DeskropX themselves, but the way Impulse is showing their status ...)
[quote]Always Verify MyColors and then WindowBlinds in that order. Once you verify WindowBlinds, do not reverify MyColors, as it will always fail .[/quote] That's the point which also brings back wrong informations in Impulse about DeskScapes / DesktopX ... I mean right now, DeskScapes 3 is installed (and mentionned as it in Impulse) and DesktopX 4 beta upadate is showing as avaible. What i'm telling as issue till the start of this thread, is that
[quote who="Dupo" reply="22" id="2445052"]I've also had installation problems with this 'previous version installed' error. I finally got it to say that its installed but Object Desktop Launchpad does not recognize it as being installed. If i click on the shaded button it asks if i want to open Impulse and install it. I cannot get it to show up as installed on launchpad. [/quote] Have a look at this thread : https://forums.wincusto

[quote]Yes. MyColors and WindowBlinds/IconPackager share registry keys, which will point to whichever is the last installed. ALWAYS install WindowBlinds/IconPackager AFTER MyColors. This is also why when you verify MyColors after installing one of these two apps it will ALWYS fail, and vice versa.[/quote] OK but this is also (apparently) why i get the silly error on DeskScapes 3 listed as installed or DeskScapes listed as "Previous version installed" ... [e digicons]:annoyed
[quote]This also happens with me. Just today Deskscapes had mysteriously disappeared, for the second time. It said, once I unhid it, that the previous version was installed. I did as before, installed the new version and then about 3 hours later I opened Impulse and it was the same story. I had to reinstall it again. I would think this thread would serve as a "Class Action Suport Ticket" rather than each of us starting a ticket. Makes sense to me. [/quote] In kind of way, glad to see
Well it's not only a personnal support ticket that is needed, i just had the bad idea to verify installation of MyColors on another XP SP3 PC. [e digicons]8C[/e] "Application is badly installed, update it", though i did, and after the reboot i had exactly the similar trouble as mentioned Just to be sure i also did the same on a third PC and same result ... In fact there's a big glitch between Impulse, MyColors, applications linked to MyColors and trouble
Thanks Neil and about Explorer Backgrounds: 1° where are the default ones stored ? 2° how to link a particular background texture to a specific WB (and keep it in memory) as it was previously the case with WB6 ? Thanks
[quote]open up Impulse and click the 'My Software' tab. Click on DeskScapes. At the bottom of Impulse, it should say version v.3.00 (11/18/2009). [/quote] Nope it does not, it says DeskScapes V2.92 beta ( 19 /11/2009) size 54,96 MB Official support asked by mail linking this thread
I just noticed neither WB 7.00.006 from 11/17/2009, neither WB 7.00.009 from 11/18/2009 permit anymore to set Backgrounds Opacity levels (under XP SP3) [e digicons]>:([/e]
That's finally what i did Rosco_P, but it doesn't change anything, still have the same troubles [e digicons]:([/e]
[quote]Try closing Impulse and running the following file: http://sd.stardock.com/curthendzell/fix_registrations.reg Make sure to follow the link in Internet Explorer, as other web browsers will not handle the file type correctly. Once you follow the link, save the file and double click it to apply it. Then relaunch Impulse. You will need to re-login with your username/e-mail (either will work) and password.[/quote] Ok but i just noticed i

I'd like to know how it is possible to run that #´&$£ Impulse program to run correctly [e digicons]>:([/e] DeskScapes 3 is not shown as avaible, DesktopX4 is not shown as avaible, MyColors Ankh desktop still bringing "error retieving data" (and maybe some others errors ...)
