Do you have Stardock Deskscapes installed? Deskscapes is required to run the .dream files.

yes, stardock deskscapes installed. but i always get an error message. windows explorer then one terminates automatically. I start windows explorer over the task manager. is there a solution for this problem?

I had a problem where the .Dream files just weren't showing up when I did Personalize-->Desktop Background, so I just double-clicked the file from the location I downloaded it to and it worked. But I also realized that DeskScapes makes a .wmv backup of the .Dream file, so if you search your DeskScapes folder for .wmv files, you might find it (after double-clicking the .Dream file).

It's a really very bugged thing.
I prefer to use original DreamScene. So I want to convert that unuseful .dream into .wmv that works

I'm having a very similar problem, every time i browse to the folder that contains the .dream files my computer locks up, and i have to do a hard reset. Still looking for a way to convert .dreams back to WVM or MPEG
