I just now thought to check my desktop icons, which I have hidden. Sure enough, there's a shortcut to Edge created on that date which is one of the things he mentions, clicking that out right now. So, a little more likely that I did click out the rest of it too.

[quote]I wonder if any of you folks have seen anything like what's described in the Verge article, though. [/quote] I don't think so. If I'm looking at the right update (KB4559309) though that was a couple of weeks ago on me and I may have just "clicked it all out" and forgotten about it. I do that sometimes.

There is a troubleshooting section in the settings that you can work with if you like, pictures here: http://esupport.stardock.com/index.php?/Knowledgebase/Article/View/298/88/i-need-to-backuprestore-my-dock-settings

I'm only talking about the files specifically which contain the tilde "~" character. Most skinners seem to leave them in there. My usual hacky disclaimer: Based on my experience only, results are not guaranteed, proceed at your own risk. I delete them, aggressively. I also delete the reimport.lst file which is usually in there. I also delete the TmpPngs folder if it's in there, which it usually isn't. [quote w

I've been using Start10 on Win10 ever since the very early days of Win10 and I'm fairly certain the situation has always been as Basj described in Reply 1, the button will be confined within the taskbar. One thing that does have a minor affect on positioning is whether or not the Start Button is set to "Position vertically in the taskbar". Image in Reply 7 is how it would look with that option turned off, Image in Reply 8 is how it would look with that option enabled. If tha

[quote who="Papoka" reply="17" id="3781424"] I have found that if ESET Nod32 is installed, WindowBlinds will report an error after installation [/quote] This has been a known issue for quite some time, it would appear that Eset has no interest in addressing it. You need to set a rule in Eset's HIPS section to allow WB. I'm not sure how current this guide is, an update to Eset may have changed the layout, but hopefully you can follow it: <a href="http://es

If it was actually trying to save it to c:\Programs... it probably wasn't saving at all. Keep in mind that you're using a discontinued, unsupported program that hasn't been updated in years. Another possibility is you've been saving it to and loading it from the same folder as the original theme you initially loaded. Otherwise, there's always a file search.

Ah, new picture is much better. It looks like you're trying to save it to the C:\Programs Files.... directory, it's probably getting blocked by either Windows or your antivirus. Try saving it to a less restricted folder, such as one in your "My Documents" folder.

Honestly that image is way too small for me to see anything. Anyway there are a couple of other options: Option 1: In your folder c:\Program Files(x86)\Stardock\Object Desktop\DesktopX there should be a file DesktopX Helper.exe. Double click on that and it'll open a widget (which will not be saved with your desktop). The 3rd icon on the bottom is "Save Desktop As". Watch the mouseover tooltip because the icon directly above it is merely "Save Desktop".

While in DTX Builder, rightclick on the DTX systray icon and select "Save desktop as". Note that in the window that pops up, you need to specify the entire path with the file name.

[quote who="dnelson_1901" reply="17" id="3780190"] Now, let's have someone else explain what "Replace default frames" on the Windows tab and "Image has two frames" on the Taskbar tab do [/quote] Replace default frames - Uses the defined image instead of the default frames. Otherwise, the defined image is used on top of the default frame. The difference is apparent when using images with transparency in them (including rounded corners).

You need to be in DTX Builder. If you're not, rightclick on the DTX icon in the systray and select "Switch to DesktopX Builder". Once in Builder, right click on the DTX systray icon and select "List Objects". The Navigator window that comes up may not show the window buttons in the top right (not really Win10 compatible). If you click in the top right corner where the close button should be, it'll close. You can also rightclick on the title bar and get the mi

If I remember right it pops up 10 pixels down and 10 pixels to the right. 15 pixels down and 15 pixels to the right. You can also open up the DTX Navigator (?) and type in a new set of X Y co-ordinates to move to somewhere you can see it.
