Some Themes CRASHES Windows!

November 2, 2016 8:17:43 PM from Stardock ForumsStardock Forums

Does anybody has this problem:

after last (damn buggy) Windows 10 update (MS dare to call it "Creative") applying of some themes provides turn off desktop.

No-one key works and only reset is the way. But after several resets $*&@#! windows goes to restore mode...

ANY IDEA?

WindowBlinds latest.

These are glitching.

Explorer crashes when rollup button pressed.

Or just like that in a half minute...

So it is only when a window is rolled up?

No, it crashes anyway; after 20-30 sec.

This statement makes it sound like there is some larger system problem.  Windows 10 should not go into restore mode unless it becomes corrupt.

Windowblinds would not likely be the cause of this.

How about that: I did re-assembly conflict theme - and it WORKS!

System problems? Be real!

What do you mean by reassemble the themes?  What exactly did you change?

Also you have mentioned using the creative edition of Windows 10.  Based on the information from other posts you have made it looks like you are using the Windows 10 Anniversary Update.  The Creative Edition is not due for release until 2017.

best article i can is from july stating that theres some graphics driver from intel that is crashing computers after 15 seconds of installing.

 

you mentioned a microsoft windows update issue.was the said update some kind of graphics card update install?

 

if so its on microsofts side and has been an issue.it could also be why you think its windowblinds itself.

just a thought.make sure your drivers are up to date and not corrupted.

 

but i agree windowblinds itself shouldnt be corrupting your pc like that.

 

its more than likely a system issue.

system issue.lets be real! was your statement right?

well in this case i am real.ive used windowblinds and stardock for awhile and this is not an issue ive experienced myself sooo..

Not Intel. nVidia.

Since you're getting that crashing, Electroself...you might look at that issue if you're using nVidia drivers.

it was probably nvidia as well but the article i was looking at said it happened with intel 4000 series as well

 

regardless i do think its a graphics driver issue.

 

i looked further into the latest update as well for microsoft and there are supposed updates for the boot manager.

 

if the boot manager was not configured properly before as well that could be an issue in itself.

 

regardless i hope all gets fixed and working
