I bought ObjectDesktop about 3 weeks ago and I don't have access to the beta. I even have the "show pre-release" checked :(

If you have WindowBlinds 5 installed, then uninstall it and WB6 should show up in Stardock Central. Let me know if you run into any problems. :)

This is another WB6 preview video. Shows many of the same features as the last video, but this is running on XP for those who haven't (or don't intend to) upgrade to Vista. :)

i purchased WB5 in may/2007 and have recently installed Stardock Central

but i don't see WB6 available?! (yes i have "Show pre-release versions" checked on)

must i have have the full Object Desktop to obtain WB6 beta and final?

You need the OD subscription to access the beta, but if you purchased WindowBlinds in May of this year, then the upgrade will be free. :)

If I buy Windowblinds 5.51 today, will i get a free upgrade to WB 6 when its released or do i have to pay for the upgrade?

Anyone who purchased WindowBlinds after February 1st, 2007 will receive the upgrade for free. :)

    • Anyway to download these versions without being on the Experimental builds?
    • Nothing is stopping you from continuing with your testing cadence. If updates are released every 2 weeks instead of 4, and you test once every 4 weeks, the exact same amount of patches will still be available for you in those 4 weeks. For example: Before 4th week - patch 1, 2, 3, 4 After 2nd week - patch 1 and 2 4th week - patch 3 and 4 Still the same amount after 4.
    • Everyone else has said it. I'm gonna say it - you don't know what you're talking about. I do. I have two laptops. One work, one personal. I have access to two more laptops - both personal. At home I manually update my personal laptop when I see on Neowin that there is an update - I carry on and only apply the updates when I am ready. My work one only updates when my workplace decides to send it - I carry on and only apply the updates (when they actually arrive, which is usually days after the release) when I switch off the laptop at the end of the day as usual. The two other personal laptops only get updated when I get to it which is rarely - the people who own them carry on using them until I get to it and update them. All of the browsers on all laptops are configured to restore the tabs when launched. Google and Microsoft have changed from 6 weeks to 4, and it looks like it's going to move to 2. None of these changes affect how any of these browsers on the laptops are used. Not one jot. My advice to you is stop panicking whenever you see an update. Just carry on with what you're doing. This even benefits you in a way - from your comment you sound like you don't like the changes or the frivolous new features - great - then carry on as before!
