LogonStudio Help Please

Friday, June 11, 2004 by Firedogs Ron Son Jose | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk

O.K., something happened and I cleaned out LogonStudio software and reinstalled now only having the three (3) initial logons (i.e., welcome1, welcome2, and welcome 3). Memory does not remember how to get a new downloaded logon into the LogonStudio window. Need instructions if you would be so kind.

The problem is that the downloaded logon unzips just fine, but instead of it going into the directory (LogonStudio Window) it shows up for example: Curent: Nightlights. The problem is a) the Preview does not show up for example again Nightlights, and it does not actually show up on log off.

Your search - Nightlights - did not produce any results
Please enter new search criteria and try again.

Generally Logons fail to load due to improper packaging when uploaded. If I could download the Logon you're referring to I could explain how to get it loaded.  TRy this.... open the LogonStudio directory, and look for a folder with the same name as the Logon you're trying to load. Chances are the actual Logon will be inside that folder, and all you have to do is double-click it.

Randy, I have the program and downloaded CIA-SE. Where it shows this in the directory is "above" the box to the left where the 3 samples are that come with the program.

It is in WC's logons>Author: MexZC

Further, I did not use to have this problem. They use to go right into the directory. We have XP. Question: After downloading to the desktop, I open folder to where? Usually, I use the desktop and than click on the zip and it opens to a window for extraction of a file(s), then another window opens. I open the file and it goes into the directory (sort of), but not in the list...just above the list>like this: Current: John Doe.

I'm actually downloading it now. I can tell you right away that it is packaged wrong. It should download as a .logonxp file instead of a zip. This way it will extract properly for the program.

That link didn't take me to it either, but I finally found it..... it's C.I.A-Se ....... in the future please spell the name exactly as it appears. It makes searching for a skin much easier.

OK... downloaded said Logon, opened the zip, and double-clicked the CIA-SE.logonxp file inside, and it loaded perfectly.

I'm going to do a little guess work here........ you're using the built in XP zip manager, right?

I haven't used that much, because I didn't like the way it works. But you probably need to extract the contents of the zip to anywhere you choose (the Desktop is fime). Then go to the extracted file(s), and double-click the logonxp file. That should work.

I have to leave for a while, but if that doesn't fix it for you, let me know, I'll check this thread when I get a chance.

Well, I just opened the zip and there was a wallpaper and a logonxp file in it. I double clicked the logonxp file and it installed just fine. I hit apply and the logon file worked.

Just right click,hold,drag and copy the file to your desktop and try to apply it there.

The "samples" within Skins and Themes load correctly after download. The problem is getting them from WC's logons. If you give me instruction, please make them step-by-step otherwise I am totally lost at sea.

How about 95º F with a heat index of 102º, humidity 60% ............. that's close enogh to hot for me.  Of course it has cooled off some now, and it's only 90º with a heat index of 97º.

Koasati is sweaty and tired and headed for the shower.........


I'll check my mail in a bit.
