What is  wbvista.exe

Developed in 1998 by Stardock Corporation, WBVista.exe process is the executable file of WindowBlinds, a software that provides users the ability to transform the Windows interface by preferred title bars styles, buttons, tool bars, and check boxes. WindowBlinds has two formats of interface skin schemes: the Basic format (UIS1) and the Advanced format (UIS2). The widely used "Basic" or standard, relaxed size skin format has customizable full features (four pixels wide on most of the borders) allowing customizability of the titlebar height. Its limitations are the titlebar animation and scripting are not supported. Its advantages are that its visual style has twice as fast speed in repainting and resizing, and that most style schemes in Microsoft can be converted or customized to a “Basic” skin. The “Advanced” format complements with the limitations of the Basic format. These skins have wider borders, or none at all. Unlike with the Basic format, titlebar scripting and background animation is an enabled feature.
