I'm encountering a problem with one of my skins after the latest update (5.01i[beta].013) to WindowBlinds.

The only skin I have encountered this on, is Flux.

I will log in to my account, and attempt to open the start panel when the error happens. Now, if I open the WB config. window, and select to load Flux again, everthing is fine. However, when I log out/shutdown and then log back in, the error happens all over again. I have tried this several times with several other skins, Flux is the only skin I encounter this error on. Please refer to my linked Screenshots for a more in depth look at the problem. I appreciate any help you may offer, thank you.

Here are the Screenshots. There are several different ones showing the various problems.

Correction: I Have encountered this error on several blinds. I am unsure as why this did not happen earlier. Thanks.

Are you using any of the WB colouring features?

No

I am encountering the same problem with the latest WB5 beta update. I have used Cyclops for 2 months now without any problems, but the update made the blind go completely awry.

Neil:

I wanted to state, that I am only encountering this error on ONE account only. That is, I have two accounts, both Admin's. The account that I updated WindoBlinds with is fine. Absolutlely no problems with the skins. The other account however is a mess.

Hope this helps. Thanks!

I'm also experiencing problems with windowblinds. The suites are Quotidian and Tronnix. Both have desktopX to go with the windowblind theme. Tried changing them unloading windowblinds first and the whole system hangs up, nothing works, not even shutdown from the task bar. Task manager also hangs. I have to turn off manually. What's going on?
