Have a question and need help re-downloading 2 skins.

Tuesday, October 12, 2004 by Lady Aarielle | Discussion: Stardock Software

I'm trying to re-download "Windows 2004" by Boxxi and "Mocha Delight" by Crissy14 WindowBlinds, however, regardless of what I do I cannot seem to achieve it. When I do it directly from WC site it goes through the motions, but when the bubble appears it just says: " a skin called " has been installed". When I try to install from SDC it reverts to classic windows. This happens with both skins.

I tried deleting and re-downloading something else and I had no problem... soooo, is there a problem with those two particular skins now?

Hiya....try going directly to the WindowBlinds folder and deleting the skins from there. Then download using Internet Explorer or equivalent. Instead of just clicking the download link right-click on it and save as....putting it somewhere you can easily find it. Once download is done click on the *wba file and in should install okay. If you are using a internet accelerator like NetZero HiSpeed, or Earthlink Accelerator, clear their cache first and disable the accelerator or it will continue to create the same corrupted download
