Theme Manager crashes every time it tries to apply a skin
Sunday, April 17, 2005 by PurrBall | Discussion: Theme Manager
This happens to every skin I try. It will say 'extracting' and then 'Theme Manager has caused a problem and needs to close. We're sorry for the inconvienience.'

The current pre-release "Release Candidate" version is 2.19i[rc].002
This version appears to be working fine - at least on my machine.
If you have access to this through SDC (select "show pre-release versions"), you might try updating to that one.
It looks like an issue between the program and the OS to me. I am thinking that there may be a corruption in the program installation.
Applying manually may be best at this time - if possible.
Sorry I don't have anything better to offer at this time.

Dunno if this helps, Meowy, but I had the same probs after installing the Alienware suite, accompanied by Thememanager 2.00.008. Also, I could not "save desktop", but after reverting back to Thememanager 2.19i[rc].002, the prob seems to be resolved. Hope this info helps

I have the SD version of TM, not an OEM.
I don't know what is stopping it in its tracks...

Click on OK to terminate the program.
Click on CANCEL to debug the program.
That's what I got just now trying to apply a WB using Theme MGR.
It's one reason I haven't tried using it in a while.
