Just Installed WB5... No Skins!!!

Just installed WB5... NO SKINS! Payed for the latest version, and all I have in my skins list are Classic and XP Default.

I have also tried downloading some new skins from Wincustomize.org, and they install fine when i double click on 'em, and activate... but then... they still don'et appear in the skin list in the main WB Configuration window!

Anyone got any ideas?

Oh here's my system info...

Use Stardock Central to get the latest build (5.00[b].10) and you should get a fix. This seems similar to an ODBC/DSN problem in some betas for WB5, and is fixed by using a different format for WB database.

Hey thanks, but I just downloaded WB about 45mins ago... shouldn't this be the latest build? What's Stardock Central, is that their own website? www.stardock.com right?

Stardock Central (SDC) is a browser/download/update/manager

not sure you will be able to use SDC unless you have purchased WB5

if you're using the shareware version, not sure when it will be a more current 'latest build'. Those that have purchased WB5 can have accesss to 'latest builds' all year long (which includes lots of betas)
