Thanks all! All I had to do I found out was uninstall SKS 6.1 again and reinstall it after I had removed SKS 5. Did not even need to use the zapper. Thanks again! ;)

I must be a really old timer here! While I know a lot of the groups mentioned here, and listen to some of their music, I personally like artists like Sarah Brightman, Josh Groban, Celine Dion, Enya, Melissa Manchester, John Tesh, Yanni and a few others. Some may know these artists, some may not... ;) Holy Cow! I just noticed how old this thread is! :)

[quote]Huh, just opened WB and click the edit in skinstudio and it opened sks5 not 6.1[/quote] Right, that is the problem, WB has not been updated to open SKS6.1, it tries to open SKS 5, which Ido nto even have installed. I do not think the C:\Program Files\MSImport\Resources\skssplsh.dat path has anything to do with the file that Brad put up in my other thread concerning Death of a Company (TGTSoft). Also, no, I do not have that folder or file on my system.

OK, I installed SDC from scratch, but SDC should certainly not be a requirement to open a theme in SkinStudio from within WB. All it did was cause another error, it comes up now with a dialog that says: "Error Opening File C:\Program Files\MSImport\Resources\skssplsh.dat!", and when you click OK it opens up a window that says it is Stardock SkinStudio Professional and a different dialog comes up saying: "The file type is not supported in this version of Stardock SkinStudio Professional.

ODZIP.DLL Missing in WindowBlinds WinCustomize Forums

Whenever I click the Edit in SkinStudio link in the latest WB release I get an error: I get a Caution! dialog that says "Cannot find ODZIP.DLL. The Dll must be in the applicationdirectory, the path, the Windows directory or the Windows System directory." I am using all latest software and it is all installed correctly. I am using SKS 6.1. Possibly WB has not been updated in this area, to use SKS 6.1? WindowBlinds version : WindowBlinds 6.1 (build 55 x86) W

[quote]...there are a few good artists out there whose work you have to admire...[/quote] That is very true Leo, there are several good artists still designing .msstyles for the UXTHEME.DLL patch, but most of them use StyleBuilder or a ResEdit type hacker program to do so. There are other factors that have played into my decision, like the lack of support from TGTSoft to its users, and the fact that after a multitude of questions to the owner via email and even trying to get new product

The Death of a Company, the Death of .MSStyles in OS Customization WinCustomize Forums

It has been two years now since any further software development was done by TGTSoft on its products, the last release of StyleXP was in June of 2006. In my opinion and for all intents and purposes TGTSoft, who had its start in 2001, is gone. No more staff, no more technical support, no more nothing. To the best of my knowledge there is no one working at the company at all. Emails

Reply to menu pieces invisible until mouseover in WindowBlinds WinCustomize Forums

Well, I just checked my MSN submenus in XP, and they work fine. I am using a WB skin that is being designed from the start using SkinStudio 6. When I applied a skin that was a port from a .msstyles, the problem does occur. So in my case it is evidently how SkinStudio 5 imported the .msstyles that is causing the problem. This may not be true for everyone, but since SkinStudio 5 is no longer being supported by Stardock, I don't think the problem is fixable unless you exclude MSN in your Window
