It's the same one many are now reporting in the other thread. So far, it looks like at least a few of the people are on Vista 64.
"There was an error while applying {SKIN NAME}"
It fails with the default ones and any I create.
My system is Vista 64 Ultimate SP1, 8gb ram, quad core 6600 on a 680i series motherboard. This machine has multiple Operating Systems installed and this one boots off of the D: drive if that helps.

This issue has been resolved. Please update Bootskin Pro through Impulse for the fix.

Is it supposed to be just a static picture, with no animation? If so, what's the point?

For anyone still having issues after the update: Can you post the following info?
1.) Vista version (Home Premium, Business, etc.). 32 or 64 bit.
2.) Language version you have (non-english versions of Vista)
3.) Whether UAC is on or off.

Yet another update......still not working...try fixing it once and for all, and don't release programs until they are fully functioning, particulary when people pay good money for same.
I acturally paid to extend my subscription into 2010 to get just this unworkable program...what an absolute fool I was.
32bit Vista Sp1
English version
Have tried with UAC on and off, does not make any difference.

I just tried the new update v0037 and it WORKS on my 64 bit system! 
Mine was 64 bit Ultimate, UAC OFF.

I have sent in a Bug report to [email protected] with the error message and system info for my PC. You might do the same so they can use the info to help fix the problem.
