importing skins to windowblinds 7
do I have to download everything again?
Wednesday, October 12, 2011 by NetBadger | Discussion: WindowBlinds
After upgrading to Windows 7, 64bit on a formatted drive, I installed Windowblinds on my living room computer. On a thumb drive, I copied all of my cursors, themes, icons and windowblinds from the office computer. I copied them to the appropriate folder and the icons, themes and cursors got read into the new installation on the living room computer. That was not the case with the Windowblinds. For the life of me, I cannot get Windowblinds 7 to recognize the skins I brought up on the thumb drive. I may be wrong, but I think the used to be a button or link that would get Windowblinds to build a new list. It just got WB to make a new list by re-reading the directory where the skins were stored. Any ideas?
NEVER MIND! I FOUND WHERE THE REBUILD LIST LINK IS.

Depends on where you put your skins back too NetBadger and what OS you had before. In Windows 7 all the skins should be in C:\Users\Public\Public Documents\Stardock\WindowBlinds.
Once they are there you click on Skin Options and Rebuild List in Windowblinds and they should be there.

It couldn't have been more than 5 minutes between the time I posted the question, and the added the never mind.
