Possible bug when installing skin

[Brian]

I got an error when I tried to install Faradey's Slide Switch 1.1 over the previous version 1.0. I downloaded the skin, double clicked the .rmskin, and this popped up:

Once, I clicked Ok, this popped up:

Then Rainmeter exited. I started Rainmeter once again, and everything seemed to work fine, but no Slide Switch in my skins directory. I then tried to install it once again, and got the same result. So, the next time I tried installing the skin when Rainmeter was not running, and everything worked fine.

I got an error when I tried to install Faradey's Slide Switch 1.1

Maybe because of a spelling error in the file? Tamplate instead of Template.

I thought that too, but his first version worked fine and it had "Tamplate" too.

I only thing I can think of is that SkinInstaller is deleting the "previous" Slide Switch folder before the backup is complete.

Also, the file size is a lot bigger in SlideSwitch1.1 versus 1.0 - so that may play a role as well.

I had the same problem on other skins and this behavior is really rare and sometimes after such error i run install again and everything goes fine. And this makes me think about some access problems..i mean, some process (Rainmeter for example) is blocking the file and preventing from deleting (or what it should do with it when updating) it...may be i'm wrong

Just tried to install version 1.2 over already installed 1.2 = get same error (when i run installer Rainmeter is autoexiting btw) but when i run it again all was fine ^^) it a little strange)

oops) but i think it not plays any role in installing skins and as far as i know this folder is not necessary and skin's file will work without it as good as with)
