Corrupted SysMetrix Files

Thursday, July 8, 2004 by shardofjustice | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk

I keep trying to get up a new sysmetrix for my awsome desktop but I keep doing something wrong because every time I download one and try to import a skin it says the the file is missing or corrupted (Error: 2). Double clicking on the file doesn't do Jack either...

I failed to get to the point: What am I doing wrong?

OK...do it manually. Download the zipped skin to a temp folder and un-zip it there. Now open that folder and inside it will be a folder with same name. Move that folder to C:\Program Files\SysMetrix\Themes. Start up SysMetrix and it will be there.

I'm going to reinstall sysmetrix because for some reason I don't even have a themes folder...

Turns out it never does install a themes folder when you dont install the pre packed themes, so anyone who doesnt want them should make sure to make thier themes folder themselves...
