Converting old WindowBlinds themes for use with latest versions?

WindoBlinds 3 XP Platinum theme

from Stardock Forums

Hi all! New member here. I remember the lovely XP Platinum skin from WindowBlinds 3.x. I used it on Win98 as at that time I didn't have XP. I like it more than standard Luna skins and I was wondering if it's possible to convert an old theme from WB3 to be used with the later versions of WindowBlinds on Windows 10?

I've extracted the themes from WB 3 such as XP Platinum and XP Wood and put them in a .zip file: https://easyupload.io/8trdk0

As you can see they're just folders with graphic elements.

Almost all skins from XP works correct on Windows Blinds 10. In some very old skins dosent work task bar.

As Robert84MK says, most older WB skins will work just fine on newer OSes.

Only UIS0 skins should no longer work.  If the skin lacks a taskbar (so pre XP) then naturally your taskbar will not skin and the experience will be less than optimal.
