When using a modern skin, Winamp classic skin also loads

stone80a · 24th February 2005, 11:39

When I load a modern skin, the default Winamp classic skin also loads (see included bitmap).

As soon as I click on the modern Winamp player, the Winamp classic skin disapears again.

Any cure for this?

It is a completely fresh installation of Winamp 5.08e without any additional plugins installed.

OS: Windows XP Pro, SP 2
Full version of Winamp

Earlier versions had this classic "ghost" problem and was fixed. However, this is also caused by some desktop enhancer/utility apps (EG. DLGXRsizer, yzshadow, nView, Litestep, Samurize, StyleXP, Windows Blinds, Perfect Menu, Aston shell, Winsize etc.)? If you have one, try putting Winamp in the exclude list of the desktop utility. Hopefully your desktop utility has a exclude list.

Now, why didn't I think about that! It was Yzshadow that caused the problem. Thanks.

PS: Using Avedesk, UMtheme patcher and YzToolbar too without problems.
