Restoring Windowblinds and Iconpackager themes

Tuesday, January 6, 2009 by David Rocha | Discussion: OS Customization

I recently re-installed Windows XP on my computer, but before I did that I backed up all my Windowblinds skins, Iconpackager , CursorFX themes, etc.  Restoring the CursorFX themes was very simple, just drag and drop.  Is there an easy way to restore or re-install the themes for Windowblinds and Iconpackager?  It seems I have to re-install each skin/theme one by one through the application, or by double-clicking the actual theme.

I guess I'm just lazy about double-clicking dozens of .ip and .wba files.

Any help is appreciated.

Well, now may be too late, but I reinstall Windows a few times a year. I burn the actual INSTALLED themes for windowblinds onto CDs or DVDs. Then you can just copy them back into the directory upon reinstall, and open Windpwblinds and hit rebuild list.

Yeah, that's a much smarter way to do it, I'll do that next time.  Thanks for the response
