Roger D Posted September 12, 2013 Share Posted September 12, 2013 (edited) Today I was trying WindowBlinds 8 in my windows 8 laptop. After Installation, I copied the Keygen(RNDD Repack) into the Installation folder and then ran as admin. It saved license successfully but when I tried to Patch I got the error..I started Task manager but I didn't find any process or program named WbSrv..Edit: In "services" I found this but it's already stopped, even if i disabled it still the same issue..I am using Windows 8 Pro x86.help me guys.. :rolleyes: Edited September 12, 2013 by Roger D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
