Hello!
I purchased Soundpackager, got really excited to change all my sounds, and...
...It doesn't work.
I go in, change the theme, apply it.
Restart to see if I hear the new windows logon sound, nothing.
New email notification sound, nothing.
Have tried reinstalling the app multiple times.
Help?
As a test, uninstall it, reboot and try again.

That didn't help 
Of course I have. Actually first thing to do for me after a fresh install of windows is disabling compressed folders. I have enabled it then reboot and still not working for me I think this might be the issue because I am using Curtains too and I can only install extracted themes. As a controlling measure, how can I extract the soundpack files? 7zip and winrar doesn't help on extracting those.
How did you disable compressed folders and is there a specific reason you did?
Have you also disabled compressed folders in windows?
From registry editor (which of course I had backup first and have the file at hand for these kind of future problems)
Reason: I hate windows' zip folder handling and honestly I accustomed to use zip handlers since windows '95 
But now I had it back on and zip folders are working again just to test whats going on about this issue but still not be able to install any soundpackage
Well, that explains a lot...
If this is Windows 10 pro, and you enable the Sandbox option:
Install and test SP, does it work under it?
That is not expected to fix your issue, rather, demonstrate that it works without editing the core functionality of Windows itself.
