windowblinds and windows left/right menus

Upon each new skin applied in windowblinds Windows switches from left handed menus (menus opening to the right of the hand) to right handed ones (menus opening to the left of the hand).

The only way I found to set it up right back is to open tablet Pc settings (shell:::{80F3F1D5-FECA-45F3-BC32-752C152E456E}) then choose left handed in the 'other' pane.

You appear to be running an old build.

There was a bug in the first 7.3 build but this was resolved shortly afterwards.

I would download the latest version and install that.

As a matter of fact I did that before reading your answer, updated and rebooted for a cure of this bug.

Thank you for your input !

I've got the same problem. I've just uninstalled and reinstalled Windowblinds 7 and the menus are still opening on the left. How do I fix it? I used the Nuage Redux 2 Win 7 skin.

And now that I looks at the info again, I notice that my experience score has dropped a bit too. Was 4.5 not long ago.

Here's a fix to get back to right opening menus, but you'll need to unload Windowblinds. The problem is definitely with Windowblinds, because as soon as you re-enable it, the problem is back.

Menus registry fix.

That fixed it.

I hate when it turns out to be so easy. I'm just glad it wasn't my wife asking me somethign like "Is it plugged in?" Me snapping "Of *course* it is!" and an hour later (after she's left the room) checking the plug and finding it loose.

LMAO!!

This is what actually happened on my end...

Zu: "Rebooted?"

Me: Of course I did, I always do!

Me: Didn't I?

Me: hmmm, maybe not....

Me: "Ummm, dunno if I have or not, will do that now."

(reboot and check the menu)

Me: Well, crap, I guess I didn't.

Me: "That fixed it. "
