Col. Alpha Male is flying high
Default GUI is messing up now

OK Here's the background
1. Win 7 ULT - SP1 - current updates, Admin account,
2. Win Firewall only,
3. 4 GB Ram, 2.5 ghz CPU W/ 6 MB Cache - display 1920 x 1200,
4. 500 GB master HD C: - 100GB avail,
5. TWC 30MB Cable internet,
6. Thier equipment,
7. From Home,
8. Wireshare 5.6.5, Java 8.121 b13,
9. Time Warner Cable, I also use Ares & BitComet,
10. FYI - Geforce GT 8700M dual 512MB video,
11. no,
12. New problem with experienced Ultrapeer,
13. no - N/A,
14. UPnP,
15. NO AV / Antispyware - spywareblaster - spybot S&D - Winpatrol - IOBIT,
16. USA,
17. No changes to report.
So here goes, I am using the classic interface. When loaded the font
is now extremely small. After a time & all of a sudden I am losing the status
bar between the search & Transfer windows. The labels on the right side of the
transfer window is in a blue shaded box. I have totally removed wireshare &
re-installed to no effect. I moved incompletes folder beforehand to another
folder. Finished ones go to another drive already. I used IOBIT Uninstaller to
remove all files. I have done a registry scan & clean. I run IOBIT ASC 10 on a
regular basis. I also defrag all HDs (4, 2 - 500GB, 2TB, 3TB) regularly.
Please help.

Read this whole post before trying things. Perhaps even the last suggestion of deleting the settings might be the better thing to try first.

I don't know if this will help but is probably worth a try.
Try re-installing with administrator permissions; right-click the installer & choose Run as Admin.
If same issues, find the WireShare application, right-click to get Properties & change the compatibility mode. There will be several to choose from. Make sure Privilege Level is set to Admin.

There is also an option to Disable visual themes. Not sure that would make any difference. It's disabled by default on mine.

Is there any possible change to your computer system that's occurred prior to this problem beginning that might be related? Installing or updating of drivers, system, security software?

If the above does not work then another thing to try is to delete your WireShare settings. Make a back-up of wireshare.props, library.dat, library5.dat, and downloads.dat prior to deleting the folder. Re-install WireShare but do not Run WS after installation. Find the WS settings folder & return the original backed up files. Then open WireShare.

To find the settings folder, go to Start menu & type/paste in %appdata% and open Roaming. Then find WireShare settings folder.
