Friday, January 20, 2006 by Rychian | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk
I just reinstalled xp and reinstalled windowblinds 4. None of the skins are working outside of the ones that came down with it. is there a setting in my system or windowblinds that I need to fix....or do I need a newer version of windowblinds? everything worked fine before the reinstall, and I was using windowblinds 4. Thank you for your help......

XP has a habit of recognising renamed zip archives as zips and downloads/saves them as such.
A wba file is a renamed zip.....and until XP realises that it has a WB proggy to associate wba files with it will continue to save them as zips.
This could easily be why included skins work but downloaded ones do not...
