    I have been using Windowblinds to skin Xp and Vista in my previous version of Parallels desktop, however the new PD version surprisingly already comes with this applications installed. My questions is, if I want to be able to skin my windows virtual system would installing a new version of Windowblinds create a conflict with the existing version already installed.

    Appreciated the help

    My guess is "yes" - don't run two copies of WindowBlinds at the same time.

    Hi trimegistro,
    you will not be able to use Windowblinds and Stardock version shipped with Parallels Desktop 5 simultaneously. I did not not try to upgrade from PD 4 to PD 5 with Windowblinds installed in VM, but I tried to install Windowblinds to PD 5 Win XP VM with Stardock - Stardock MyColors has been detected and I could not proceed.
