Ok so I decided to come back to stardock after a brief hiatus,and what to my sagrine do I find, but most of the suite  needs to be reconfigured file by file.Is stardock not up to windows 10 level yet,dream had to be completely reconfigured the rest of the programs its just not worth the frustration and time to deal with the hassles of reconfiguring. I am so sorry I renewed my subscription.what a waste of 30.00 .

What do you mean things need to be reconfigured file by file?

Most of the ObjectDesktop applications just need upgrading to the latest version (if you have older ones) to support Windows 10.  Nothing else should need changing.

If you are referring to Theme Manager, then yes, it does not work reliably. You are far better loading and configuring each ODNT app by it's own interface. It may not be as convenient as before, but you will get better results.

 Most current ObjectDesktop Apps now work just fine with Win10.

its just not worth the frustration and time to deal with the hassles of reconfiguring. I am so sorry I renewed my subscription.what a waste of 30.00 .

 This  I don't understand. Most people who wish to "skin" or customize their OS know going in that it will take a bit of personal input and time to get things "just right" for their tastes. For me and others, I am sure, that is the fun of it, spending time reconfiguring things as we please.

What are you changing on properties? and what do you mean by the part of the file that was not communicating with your system?

This is not normal at all.  You have no need to change any kind of properties on the files.  Just run the installer and all should work.  If not please do contact support so they can help.

Have you tried installing your apps with your AV/Antimalware disabled. It may be that some files are being blocked or quarantined.
