ShadowFX is the newest desktop customization app from Stardock that gives you the ability to add drop shadows to your windows in Windows 8.  It’s very easy to use, just select which shadow you want from the drop-down list, and you’re good to go. 

ShadowFX is also easy to customize, and making your own shadows is very simple.  You can create your own shadows to use for yourself, and you can submit them and share with others on WinCustomize.com.

Ok, so I have been thinking, I need some laughs as I have been feeling down due to  1 so called daughter that thinks ripping her own cousin off is a good idea and stealing her cousins stuff and then trashing the place and leaving it stinking like a pigsty , my niece Louise has Parkinson's disease and is bringing up her 5 year old son and shes lost her hubby 5 months ago.   I have been away since last Thursday helping Louise to get her house back in order after Bianca and her so cal...

This morning, while I was working on something more important than fences I saw a popup about icons.  I ignored it and fences with all my icons disappeared.

I tried to reinstall fences but it just wont reinstall.  I uninstalled, rebooted and tried to reinstall but it wont reinstall.

The fences xmls are in AppData and I was hoping it just use what I dat already defined.

Product looks nice but it doesn't seem to stable.

At least I haven't paid for a licence.

Good Morning!  It has been a long time since posting. Just finished up a six-year stint in college, so I was extremely busy.

I'm using Windows 10 builds from the Windows Insider Program and we recently just received build 19393 on the slow ring July 20th. Since that build, I am unable to change a skin in Windowblinds 10 without causing a crash. The crash is significant as it makes the CRTL-ALT-DELETE option unuseable, and therefore I'm forced to do a hard reboot and reboot a 2nd...

On August second, the following features are being added (along with various ‘fixes’ for current bugs).

They’re summarized in two articles from TechRepublic:

The first cites “Windows Information Protection” (a.k.a. Enterprise Data Protection):

“1. The feature uses containerisation file techniques to keep personal and enterprise data separate, as well as imposing various controls over who can access which data.

There is a good explanation on copying all docks on post “Copy ObjectDock desktop to another user” I have multiple docks in one account on two PCs.  It is easy to copy all docks from one account to another but in this case there is a good reason to have different sets of docks on a laptop than in the main work computer.  There is a specific dock that is needed on the laptop and a need to keep all of the other docks intact. I am reluctant to change CurrentTheme.ini will...

I've got WB10, and got a notification today that 10.07 was out. When I try to install it, I get a box saying I must uninstall WB7.x and reboot. How can I get the machine to understand I don't HAVE that version? I've checked in the "add/remove programs" app in the control panel, and WB7 was uninstalled before I upgraded to WB10.

Since Windows 10 does not allow you to quickly pick power profiles from the battery icon on the task bar, I created my own solution using roll-up fences.

I created .bat files that select the four different power plans I use and put links in a fence.  I set the fence to roll-up and then dragged it so just the title is visible above the battery icon:



Now, when I hover over the "Power" title, the fence unrolls upward to show the power plans.  Opening one of them runs that .bat f...

Hi

I can't get DeskScapes, Multiplicity or Tiles to Install. I get error code 123 ?

I haven't tried all of the utilities yet but I had fences two before and i tried to get the fences to roll up/down but when I double click the title bar all of the fences disappear as they did on fences 2 , what am i doing wrong ?

How do I get Launch to work? when I launch it from object desktop manager the start button just opens?

 

Thanks

 

Mike

So I upgraded to the new fences. And I liked the idea of having the roll-ups along the edge of my main screen, and just moving the mouse over them when I need to access the apps / date / folders. But when I do this, they unroll underneath the existing windows. What use is that? Is there an 'always on top' setting that I'm missing?

I'm not running any other customising software, just plain Windows 10.

Had a heck of a time getting the Windows 10 Anniversary Update installed.  Was hit with the "blank/black" screen issue because I had not updated WindowBlinds to the most recent version.  After updating, the Windows 10 Anniversary Update installed just fine, but now the WindowBlinds Icon does not show in the System Tray:



 

I have the appropriate setting checked in the Settings of WindowBlinds

I tried various ways to get thumbnail-links in the post that will transfer the user to imgur that shows the image 100%.

Some phpBB forums (maybe all?) have an option to copy paste so-called "Linked BBCode" into the forum post, with medium or small sized thumbnails.

Obviously this will avoid having full sized images in the post, which may lead to ridiculously large posts, specifically when posting multiple images.

Thanks

Working with the new Fences 3.0 (which is a big improvement over prior versions), and I find myself wanting to do a couple things that it can't:

 

1) When I mouseover a rolled-up fence and want to temporarily keep it open while I drag stuff into/out of it, I'd like to hit a "pushpin" either in it's titlebar or in one of it's corners, to stick it open until I press the pushpin again.  Useful for when you have to work with many files individually, which I do a lot f...

Hello wanted to share a quick solution for blank Startmenu Icons under Windows10.

My Problem was that all programs besides Windows own little apps in my Startmenu had a blank icon, things like VLC media player, Office tools and so, were all blank and even showed up in quick search as a blank.

Installed Applications at that time Iconpackager10 Beta upgraded from Beta to v.10.02
Start10 have no clue what version number but it was up to date since it didn’t find any upgrades....
