WB5 Multi-user not working

Anyone else seeing this problem?

Published on October 22, 2005 By Artifact85 In WindowBlinds

I finally have WB5 loaded and working (almost working). At least I am now able to load skins and switch them and am not having the issues with skins not loading or not working at all. However, in reading all the posts in the discussion board, I have seen nothing about people having problems with the Multi-User aspect of WB5 not working. My wife's account does not show that WB is present at all. No button in the Appearance Tab of Display Properties or anything. Is anyone else having this problem or is it my PC and Application?

(The Wincustomize databases had to be reverted, so I am reposting/retyping my response)

WindowBlinds 5 Beta currently does not support multi user accounts, but this is an anticipated feature in a future release.

For the time being, you can run the wbload.exe file (located within C:\Program Files\Stardock\Object Desktop\Windowblinds) prior to running WindowBlinds and that should work, although there are no guarantees.
