When downloading the latest version of rainmeter from rainmeter.net, i begin the installation process and upon finishing, I get an error stating : There are no available skins at : C://Users\1723\Documents\Rainmeter\Skins\. Furthermore, when installing the Mond skin at : https://visualskins.com/skin/mond, it begins installing and never finishes.
From reading the forums, Rainmeter is initially installed in program files(which doesn't allow writes) but a folder should be created for skins under the user documents folder for this. However, a folder isn't created here and even after manually creating the Rainmeter/Skins folder, I still get the error message from above. The default skin Illustro isn't even on rainmeter.
When looking at the text file for Rainmeter in settings, this is what's in it :here are the logs :
