.RMSKIN not installing properly. Can't figure it out.

Post by Virginityrocks »

Also, for some reason that above download wont load from the .RMSKIN. If someone wants to help me with that today, I'd appreciate it. I'm SUPER busy right now trying to get a New Years and Christmas party organized and I don't have any more time to spare. Thanks. The above skin needs version 2.5.0 of Rainmeter to run.

Installed and loaded fine for me. Make sure you have a recent 2.5 beta of Rainmeter and the latest of Brian's FileView plugin installed. I don't know (or really care) what version of Brian's plugin is trying to install with the .rmskin, I just made sure I have the latest one installed, and told the .rmskin to not install the plugin.

Still doesn't work for me. If you delete the Desktop+ folder, then install using the .RMSKIN, none of the files are installed. The Desktop+ folder does not appear in Skins, and the plugin is not installed. This is after a close, refresh, or reinstall.

This installs fine for me, as well. It also reinstalls after I manually delete the Desktop+ folder. Does the installer present any errors when you try it?

Thats strange then. I did manage to get to .Rmskin to install, but only after uninstalling Rainmeter and all user data. Something I did must have screwed up the install process.

Thanks.
