So I recently upgraded to Windows 7, Home Premium 64-bit in my case, and much to my dismay I am having major issues with bblean as the default shell. I am able to run it on top of explorer beautifully and haven't had any issues setting blackbox as the default shell however, when I relog/ reboot I get a black screen with only my little mouse pointer, no blackbox, no explorer, and I usually cant even get the task manager open. My only option at this point has been to hit the power button (ugh) and boot into safe mode, where oddly enough blackbox appears and seems to work just fine, and restore explorer as the default shell. Ive read the post talking about using the admin account to manually edit the registry and still got the same results. Does anyone know what is up with this?

bbMoron can't quit: and run Win7 64 as well with bbLean 1.17.1 32b, I had some troubles with the plugins, first of all: the 64bit of bbLean is more or less out of the question (I figured that it did not matter).

If it is so that some of your plugins are causing this error, your bbLean would (obviously) start without any of them activated? If it starts, you need to add / edit a row in extensions.rc namely: blackbox.options.OldTray: true.

This allows more plugins to function under W7/64, But do not activate all at once, start them one by one and remove those who don't start... or does not work well, bbIcon for example will function but may crash bbLean occasionally, this happens mostly when adding icons with the menusystem.
