What I'm finding based on Mike's intructions is that wba's are opened automatically and then Windows gives me a prompt to apply. Thanks to all.

I think it would be really customer-friendly of you to keep the .wb3's separate from the .desktop files, so that those of us that are test-driving can find the wb3's. Then, of course, if after the trial period we are "hooked" on Windowblinds would be more inclined to buy it. I'm going to go over to the gallery and see if there's a way to sort for wb3's, but in the meantime I hope you can tell me how to separate out the wb3's from the rest.

When I unzip the file, all that shows is a .desktop file, and that's what Windows doesn't know what to open with.

I'm downloading zip files. Once the zip file is open and what appears to be the executable appears, like a .desktop file, Windows says it doesn't have a program to associate with it. Here's the message I get from configuration- WindowBlinds 5.0 System Information Report: STATUS : WB+ SRV+ HLP+ UI+ TRAY+ WindowBlinds is installed correctly on this PC. Your machine does not support per pixel borders on WindowBlinds skins. This is because : <b

I appreciate it. I can open wb3's but nothing else.

Hi- I need to ask for help with this. Sometimes Windowblinds works and sometimes it doesn't. For instance, when I download a skin or theme, it comes out in a file type that Windows XP2 can't open. Thanks.

And I've found that with Windoze XP SP2 on an HP Pavilion it just doesn't work. I get the error message having to do with "What mode/configuration do you want to use", which includes safe mode and so forth.

Is HP Pavilion one of those? Or can you direct me to the alternate download site? I also can't get the selected bootskins into the "choice box". Like I say, I don't mean to seem like a complete idiot, but this seems harder than it should be. I wouldn't persist, except that I'm really tired of looking at the same Windows bootscreens.

I hope I don't seem like a complete idiot, but: I remember the page with the alternate versions, but I can't find it again. Beyond that, I can't get the downloaded bootskins to even show up in the "choice box" in the bootskin program. But the "boot error" messages have gone away, after I completely removed Bootskin. I read on one Bootskin download site that it really screws up the bios. I really would like to be able to do this. I suppose you all know how tiresome it gets

It appears that this program also did something to the BIOS. I uninstalled it, but I'm still getting the error screen described above.

Hi- I just downloaded bootskin, but I can't get the downloaded skins to appear in the bootskin choice box. And I noticed when I rebooted to see if that would do it, I got stopped at the "abnormal shutdown" screen, the one that says "Start Windows Normally", "Start in Safe Mode", and so forth. So how do I get the downloaded bootskins into the little box with choices of which bootskin I want to apply, and apply it?
