Is x64 support ever going to happen

December 1, 2005 6:58:45 AM from Stardock ForumsStardock Forums
I have waited and waited and waited and still WB5 does not work in Windows XP Pro x64. It is quite a dissappointment that Stardock would actually RELEASE a new version that does not support what the old version supported. It is also dissappointing that there is no response from Stardock when this question is raised.

WindowsBlinds 5 supports 64 bit XP.  We have users running it without any problems!  Even the shareware build supports it.  There was a problem in some of the betas, but this was fixed up for the final RC before release.

What problems are you having?

My problem is it doesn't work. I have installed using SD Central - no skins will load. I have uninstalled using SD Central - deleted all files in the directory and re-installed using SD Central. No skins will load. It has not worked since one of the later betas about 3 weeks ago. Here is the install info:

been there, done that, got the t-shirt. I read the forums, and have tried everything that worked on the earlier beta builds to get x64 working
