Windowsblinds downloading to my desktop

Thursday, March 11, 2010 by Jasmine Rogers | Discussion: WindowBlinds

Hi,

I have an issue: my Windowblinds skins are downloading the files straight to my desktop (severly clogging it). As a note, it does download to Windowblinds and is available for use, but the actual files seem to copy to my desktop.

I don't see a way to do a copy as, or direct the files to another location and with all the files it adds (30-40 for each skin) I definitely don't want to drop and drag into a folder each time.

Any ideas? Running Windowblinds 7 on a Windows XP system.

 

thx

jaz

What browser are you using to download the skins?  You will need to setup your browser to download the skins to whatever directory on your hard disk you wish to use for them.

I tried Firefox and set it to ask me where to download. I located the skins that are autoloaded and tried to direct the files to that general directory (i.e. WindowBlinds), and while they do show up in my Windowblinds area they are labeled as "unknown" and I cannot use them. The only reason I know they are the right downloads is that when I try to delete them, it tells me the name of the skin in part of the file location.

I never save the .wba files to my pc. I select the option to open rather than save (firefox) and the skin auto installs
