Some programs/software/applications not changing

$

Hi,

 

Maybe this has been mentioned many times, but I could not find it.

I have several software programs, which just do not change their appearance.

An example AVS4YOU, Video Editor. I know even without WB it never looked like the standard Windows 8.1

The creator seems to have made his own design, away from Windows standard.

 

Is there any way programs like this can be forced to comply to WB?

 

Thanks, Ron

Moving from Windows to MAC OSX

Being dissapointed from Windows 8 and upcoming 10 (9 actually) their new ways and interface I decided to abandon Windows after 19years and go to much better but also very expensive iMac with OSX.

I do have some questions though for users who have Macs and they can englighten me before I buy an iMac.

Windows is the most widely used OS hence almost everything out there is designed and made for them. I know I can install windows in my iMac but want to know if there are enough apps and games t...

How do I fix this skin?

I really like this skin because it has a neat kind of OS feel to it. However, it has this weird alignment problem in the title bar. Is this something I can fix myself with skin studio? If so, what would I need to do? Also, is it possible for me to replace the task bar graphic to something a little more flat looking? That I can live with but the title bar issue makes it unusable.

On my previous version of Windows 10 Pro Technical preview DeskScapes worked fine. I got an update last night of Windows 10 Pro this update is build 10041 now and now my desktop is not animated, it will just show it as a regular background of the animated picture, it won't move. I re-installed DeskScapes and everything. Any suggestions or anything you guys know what I can do to make it work? Thank you in advanced.

StarDock Support,

I have Windows7 professional and after installing the Object Desktop and 'playing' for a while, I decided to use the new Theme Manager and find a nice theme for my workstation.  However, when applying the two builtin themes:

Aero MidnightGloss MintThe visual style for the desktop goes not to the one I expected, but to the Windows basic (non-aero).  How do I fix this issue?

I love Galactic Civilizations - I also really enjoy board games.  I stumbled across this game on Kickstarter, and and wanted to share it here because it reminds me so much of GalCiv.

I’m not affiliated with the game other than being a backer, it just struck me as something that other GalCiv fans might enjoy because:It requires meaningful decisions around fleet management (supported by some re...

Synchronizing - Syncing Fences

$

Love Fences, running 3 main PCs & really want all my desktops synced.

Using Skydrive I have installed Fences to my D:\Skydrive\Fences

I have done the same to my 2nd PC.

I'm wanting Fences to sync up, but it's not, is there a config file somewhere other than where I have installed Fences that I should be syncing?

Appreciate any answers, thanks. 

Done Patching? Nope. 34 new patches to be released soon.

So you thought 21 patches were enough? Think again.

MS is releasing another 34 later today. The majority of patches apply to Windows 8, Windows RT and Windows Server 2012.  In fact, there are only five patches for Windows 7 and four for Windows Server 2008 R2 while the remaining patches are all for Windows 8 or later on the client side and Windows Server 2012 or later on the server side.

I recently purchased Fences 2, but previously had an ObjectDesktop subscription for several years and was using Fences through that.  Fences stopped working, so I assumed it was due to OD subscription expiring, so I purchased a stand-alone license.  Fences did not work and every time I ran the Fences settings app, it would say that Fences was not loaded.  I found a .bat file (FencesPurge) that I downloaded and ran, then reinstalled using the new download in my Stardock account, th...

Why isn't there a setting to allow only one type of slide-in and slide-out?

 

Why is only random allowed?

 

Can we have slide-in-from-left/slide-out-to-left settings?

 

Thanks

Alex
