Call me stupid but I cant figure out how to install the skin. Extracted (with original name and with skin.<name>) in C:\Program Files (x86)\XBMC\addons and also tried in C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Roaming\XBMC\addons with the name and skin.<name> and I still cant get it to switch to it in Setting menu.
I guess it's a stupid thing, but please help me, its frustrating.

Thanks,
SM

Try installing it from menu. Add-ons/ install from zip file.

If You mean Shutdown (exit XBMC) and then double click on XBMC icon - Yes.

What are you trying to install ? Rapier 3.06 ? It won't work, is not Dharma compliant. Try Qualar MOD or MikotoBuild.
