What conditions have to be met in order for the "Work" live folder to be used?

I have folders which only have documents using "Work"

I have folders which have sub-folders using "Work"

But I also have both of the above situations where the normal live folder icon is being used.

 

Win 8 64 bit

Latest IP version

 

Thanks,

David

Hello,

So my setup is currently my laptop screen (on my laptop of course), and my tv that is hooked up to it. I have rocketdock spanning both of them and I like to have the area blocked out so I can always access it. So for a while I was just using desktop coral which only worked on one monitor. Then I also picked up desktop x and have been using the Workarea function for one of my monitors and then desktop coral for the other. Because I know desktop coral won't/can't span my two moni...

  I had a terrible and wonderful thing happen to me 2 weeks ago now! What I thought was my Monitor dying turned out to be a dying graphics card.

 

I bought one of the "New Technology" monitors with "IPS" technology included. My monitor came from "Asus" and to be honest, I wouldn't buy from them again because they provided No driver for their monitor and No "Color Profile" software.

 

I'm still waiting for my new graphics card to arrive so for now, all of my bri...

Hello, this is my first post here. I just got Windowblinds. The transparency of Windows (not the taskbar, not the start menu) does not change when I adjust and apply the transparency setting. It stays completely opaque. I am using the Aero Metals theme, but have noticed the same problem with other skins.

Any ideas?

The article is here: http://www.thewindowsclub.com/install-windows-8-1-separate-partition

It might be a really good idea to do it this way, since you might not want to lose your working OS, especially if it’s Windows 8 with all Stardock’s goodies which turn W8 into something workable.

Stepwise?

1. Create a partition with your software or Disk Management Tool (you can read how to do that here: http://www.thewindowsclub.com/create-new-resize-extend-partition-disk-managem...

Your Windows system tray clock does its job, right? But that’s all it does, really, and you’ve spent years looking at the same, old boring interface.

When you launch the application, your default Windows clock will be replaced. If you are not satisfied with the looks of your new clock, you can select a different skin, on its main settings panel.

The utility also allows you to set up alarms and can also schedule various actions to be performed at the user defined time, such as w...

I am new to SkinStudio and I must admit using it seems somewhat overwhelming.  I decided that the best approach might be to attempt some modifications on an existing skin, so I chose the skin named "Precision" that came as part of my WB 8.0 installation (I'm using Win8).  The first thing I tried to do was change the title bar and border color for applications such Windows Explorer, which are black by default in the "Precision" skin.  I thought this might be as simple as select...

OK, I just wanted to see if any of you that have installed Windows 8.1 Preview have the WEI part of Windows.

 

I have it on a Virtual Drive and I don't have the WEI option. Just wondered if it's because it's a VM.

Hi,

 

I'm using SkinStudio to modify the Diamond Theme but I have 2 questions:

1 - Where do I find the place to change the Start8 (Start Menu) Orb?

2 - How do I change the Desktop menu font? (The menu that pops when we click the Desktop with the right mouse button)

 

TIA,

Eduardo
