Yesterday, the system tray alerted me to a WB 7.41 update. I started SDC, selected WB 7.41 and clicked uppdate. After the required boot, I assumed that WB 7.41 was installed. This morning I got another alert that there was a WB 7.41 update??? I checked the installed WB and found that WB 7.4 was still installed.

I started SDC again, selected WB 7.41 and clicked update, where upon SDC crashed!

I have recieved the new windowblinds update 3 times now via "Stardock Central" but it has yet to apply itself. I have gone as far as unloading windowblinds from memory to try and solve this.

   Any suggestions would be appreciated in getting the update as I don't want to have to get heavy handed and uninstall WB and then apply the update. I just purchased the "Object Desktop" suite of programs last week and still have a re-learning curve to go through.

  Thanks for any help anyone can offer.

P.S. I fixed the install on my machine this way, I unloaded Windowblinds and DesktopX which were the only Stardock programs running. I then went to the directory where the update was downloaded to and pressed the file to install it manually and after, I rebooted. The install went fine and I am now updated.

Just out of curiousity, after the first 'Install X items' did you click the 'tiny' install button?

Yes, I did that but it didn't install itself, it just froze after the download. Please see above for my edit, I was able to get it to install after doing it that way. Thanks for you're help

Not yet but I didn't update to 7.41 either. The update didn't effect anything I was doing so still using 7.40.

All new, all the time.  You can find the new ones on the web page and in SDC.

contact me via IRC or PM if anything looks off.

If you hover the mouse over the download button it will tell you things like version.

I didn't get Update choices on my download page. Not a one. I downloaded the only one I had which was 7.41.1   Now what? I have nothing that says 7.42. Stardock Central absolutely refused to install anything, I finally gave up and did it by hand. BTW, how do I turn off the TSR part of SDC? I don't like being nagged and since I game I don't like things running that really don't need to. (plus if it isn't going to install stuff, it might as well stay out of my tray)

LOL @ TSR.  

The Checking for updates is a scheduled task, you can delete it or turn it off in the SDC settings.
