ThemeManager can't find LogonStudio

from Stardock Forums

I can't seem to see a Theme Manager forum. Is the software discontinued? If so, what replaced it?

 

Anyway. Theme Manager depends on several other programs to skin all the parts of the computer. Mine says that it doesn't have LogonStudio. It's been reinstalled multiple times. The version has been changed once. But I cannot get Theme Manager to find it when skinning. A search of the internet shows that this is not a new problem, but nobody offers a working solution. Is there any at this time? It always frustrates me when something doesn't work as it should.

Windows 7 x64, plenty memory and storage.

Theme Manager does not work correctly, hasn't in a long time.

 

I usually only see a WB and a wall applied, sometimes only the WB.

Easier to download and install the various skins individually. I used ThemeManager awhile ago and learned this the hard way.

A tip: If you find a .suite that you like, rename the extension to .zip and extract it. The just install the WB, IP, wall and other components and apply them with their respective software.

Theme Mangler is SO broken. x_x

It is what it is Philly. No offense to you, it isn't your fault.   ;)     Theme Manager simply does not apply all the skins, like it did in XP days. In some cases, it doesn't even download the ones you don't already have.

The purpose I see it serving, in it's present state, is that it does show what the full suite of skins would look like together, giving the end user an idea of what he/she might want on their desktop.

TM showcases the various skins it "manages".  A good thing, just not it's intended purpose.   :thumbsup:

I didn't know that bit about the zips, that will help. Thanks.
