cool!!!
Works with Windows 8?
No idea. Actually, it should work, I see no reason do not work.
But i have to check it for sure.
Thank you so much!! I don't believe something like this hasn't been made yet. Just what I need :D
Somewhere I read that this also works to help make bubbles screensaver work on windows xp. while it does it for the most part. I've already learned about tweaking the registry files, and have done so with the same results. So I discovered this program and yet I still have the same problem.
It still will not show the bubbles over the regular background image. The screen always uses the black screen. And yes, I have made sure that the right selection is made for this feature. But the bubbles never show up over the background image on the desktop.
I notice the same Bubbles screensaver behavior at one of my PCs
Probably it is Windows 8 bug/feature, 'cause i had no such issue in Windows 7 which was installed previously at that PC.
No idea how to fix it.
It can't be a Windows 8 bug/feature, because I've downloaded the bubbles screensaver for Vista for XP, and same problem. I've also transferred a copy from a computer running Windows 7 to one running XP and same problem.
Maybe it depends on graphic card or/and drivers.
Probably not the issue. Considering that I can change any other feature, whether modifying registry or using this program. I wish someone would try and find out what is the cause.
Just tried this after finding it via google on technorms. Unfortunately they advertised it as being ok for 8.1. I installed it, and the preview looked fine both in the tweaker software and on the pc preview, but when the screen saver actually runs, there's been no changes. Is this because I'm using 8.1? Thanks!
can you share which screensaver you are trying to tweak?
Hi Sergey! Thank you for your response. The bubbles one. I was trying have the background something other than just a blank screen. Have a great day.
Im love this but I need work in 32 bits please Help me
Leonard,
Thanks this one is useful too..
but i was expecting it'll be transparent.. i want the bubbles screensaver to be my screensaver without the solid background and keeps my current window shown while the bubbles pops out.. anyone knows how to do that?
Hello Sergey!
Thank you so much for your awesome work! Since yesterday, I browse your website and still find so many cool things! Thank you!
@River - you should see the video - uncheck "Don't use Desktop as Background" - did the trick for me
Does it work with Windows 10 if I uncheck "Don't use Desktop as Background"
Sergey, is there an update for Windows 10? The bubbles screensaver shows a solid dark background. I want to see my desktop like in Windows 7. There was a fix where you can adjust the settings in the registry by creating Dword entries in Bubbles to adjust the size, speed etc. - they still work in Windows 10 except for the ShowBubbles parameter where setting it as 1 instead of 0 still does not show the desktop.
Microsoft removed this ability.
I cannot help to return it.
If you create a bat file with this -- @start /wait Bubbles.scr /s & rundll32 user32.dll -- in it, then create a shorcut setting it to run minimized you can start the screensaver with your desktop as the background. It will not happen automaitcally, you must do it yourself.
Is This Completely Safe? I just want to make sure.
Yes this Program is completely virus, and adware FREE !
I checked it myself.
This Program Is Safe.
Thank you very much this app is very useful !
Works great with Windows 10 no problems, great piece of software!
Nice program. Only problem is the "Do not use Desktop as background" link does not allow the desktop to be displayed when screensaver starts.
