Having mouse problems with some Screens in Win 10 1809

October 3, 2018 1:54:38 PM from Stardock ForumsStardock Forums

When I bring up settings or other Microsoft windows I cannot access the top of the window to close etc.  It is not the case when I use the Microsoft defaul theme.

I have this too, but I only have problems with Edge the other apps work. You have to unload WB for it to work.

Hello,

Sorry to hear you are having trouble.

When I bring up settings or other Microsoft windows I cannot access the top of the window to close etc.  It is not the case when I use the Microsoft defaul theme.

It is a known issue with the mass release of the Windows October update - it should only be with UWP apps (calendar, calculator, etc).

We are working on a fix - thank you for your patience.

Yo, guys! Aside from the abovementioned issue with UWP apps not responsive for windows controls, I have another weird issue also - no status bar in Windows File Explorer (see this screen - http://joxi.ru/EA4ZOkPTwqPn9m) with applying theme ("Cascade: in my case), while in the default state with no skin it works just fine. Is it also the issue with WB which will be fixed or skin problem maybe?

Right clicking the title bar and selecting close or alt-f4 works to close the windows.

Thanks for tip. Right clicking on the Title bar works. A good work around until it's fixed.

I don't perceive this as a mouse problem.  If it were a mouse problem, then there would be trouble with clicks, erratic tracking, etc.  This is a problem with WB 10.71 and Windows 10 v1809 as I have mentioned in other threads.  Going back to WB v10.65 will probably fix these issues.

Nope, I'm using it and still does it. StarDock is aware of it and is in the process of fixing it. I'll wait.

This is not primarily a mouse problem, but a skinning problem. Settings / UWP programs and Edge browsers seem to have no skins, but this is not true. The skins are only invisible in the background. The focus for closing etc. Buttons are also in the background.

If you play something with the mouse pointer, you hit the buttons in the background sometime and can press them, whereupon the function is also executed.

Hopefully there will be a patch soon!

Windows 10 x64 1809  and WindowBlinds 10.71 (051 - Windows 10 Edition) - 64 bit OS

the  no status bar in Windows File Explorer bug i have too.

Can they send an email to everyone when a fix is released? Instead of keeping an eye on this thread. Maybe the check for updates option in WB will suffice.

Yes, I'm seeing these same issues.  10.65 seems to fix the problem with the Settings screen, but the Edge browser buttons are still not getting skinned.  But then, who uses Edge anyway (...just kidding).  I hope these issues can get fixed in the next release soon.

Over the last 2 days, I re-installed Windows 10 1803 from the beginning.  Pure torture!  Re-installed Windowblinds v10.65.  I am not seeing any of the issues with skinning associated with Windows 10 v1809.  Edge skins O.K. Setting screens don't skin, but the buttons work normally.  For that matter, Office apps don't skin, but the buttons work O.K.

Technically, Microsoft is encouraging users to roll-back or re-install to v1803 until the issues associated with the v1809 are solved.  The trouble with a fouled upgrade is that it erodes trust in Microsoft.  Even if they release a v1810 upgrade, do I trust the upgrade?  For now, I'm not too sure...

But if it ain't broke, I'm not gonna fix (or change it) for now.

I have a question...

These issues affect a few people. What is the platform/processor/video hardware of the people affected?

I was affected. In my machine I have all the issues reported here.

My machine is:

- Windows 10 v1809 x64 bit, updated from v1803.

- My drivers is all updated to the last versions.

- Platform/processor/video hardware: AMD A320 chipset; Ryzen 1500X processor; AMD RX570 video hardware with 4GB RAM; 16GB RAM on motherboard.

 

I will test in my laptop, that is Intel platform/processor/video hardware in this week.
