Install Enigma link on Enigma Suite page here does not work

Post by WmHBlair »

The Install Enigma link:

https://github.com/downloads/Kaelri/Enigma/Enigma4Patch1.rmskin

on the Enigma Suite page here at this web site:

http://rainmeter.net/cms/SuitesEnigma

does not download a .rmskin file. Instead it downloads a .ZIP file, which does not contain an .rmskin file.

Is the link (here) wrong? Or is something wrong at the linked-to web page? If so, it's wrong at three other URLs which are supposedly Enigma download sites/mirrors.

I am not a Windows newbie, but I am new to Rainmeter, so I may not understand. But reading the documentation here, I am led to believe that a "skin" is distributed via a file whose file type is "rmskin".

It is a strange action of Internet Explorer that detects that a .rmskin is a form of .zip file (which it is) and renames it to .zip.

Simply rename the downloaded file from .zip to .rmskin and double click it to install it.

Thank you for your very prompt reply.

I was, in fact, aware of that Microsoft Internet Explorere (MSIE) behavior. However, I was using [Google] Chrome, not MSIE. I was not aware that Chrome did the same (silly) thing. Now I know.

I have successfully renamed the file and installed the Enigma skin.

Thanks again.
