Troube applying the Saints Row 2 theme.

Hello community,

I am a new Impulse/MyColors user and can't seem to get this theme to run.

I have a free registeration key from preordering the game. When I was first asked to imput the key it was accepted, but the theme was never applied.

I went ahead and hit the apply button again and it asked me to enter the key so I did, now it gives me an "error validating registration information, please try again" window.

I also tried the green add registration button, after entering the key it gives me an "the serial number you have entered already exists. Please try again." window.

If anyone can help it would be appreciated. Thank you.

SAME HERE TRYED IT TWICE WITH TWO CODES STILL DOES NOT WORK. THE ERROR FIRST IS YOU NEED TO PUT THE NUMBER #0 NOT THE O.

It seems that after down loading the new Impulse update the key was reset.

I clicked apply again on the theme and once more it asked for the key, after that the theme was setup.

Hope you guys have the same results.

Now the only problem I have is that the icons are not applied.

This would almost be funny if it was not so frustrating.:annoyed:

Did some of your icons apply?  Are you running Vista?

We have an intermitant issue that we are addressing with Microsoft where some of the icons sometimes do not get set up in the icon cache.  We are working with Microsoft to resolve this issue.  In the mean time you can close Explorer, delete the icon cache and reboot to resolve the issue.  (Tip: To close Explorer gracefully without killing the process do the following: click on the start button, hold down CTRL-SHIFT and then right click on the empty area in the start menu below Help.)

 Close Explorer

The files are here.

Vista: %userprofile%\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Explorer

After closing explorer delete all of the files in that folder.
