Did you enable the Skin under Tools > Options > Skins?

I just downloaded MM the other day, I just attempted to change the skin and it's not working. The skin I want is in the skin folder and I can select it, but it doesn't function properly. Any suggestions?

If you can't Change skin try to disable override skin under options.

Apart from associate skin files to MediaMonkey.exe in Windows10, I found that I need to click over each one of them, with MM open. A window will open asking if you wish
to install it, click ok. After that all the skins will appear at the Themes window.

Was having similar problem, then I noticed inside program files/mediamonkey folder there is
A media monkey (non skinned) program as well as a normal media monkey program. The shortcut was opening the non skinned version

Same happened to me.

After the 4.1.21. update MM would start the non skinned exe, for whatever reason.
I didn't know there was one until I read Solo99's post (thanks man).

There should be some form of information that reminds you of running the skinned version for the changes to show effect.

Jazznote - you are a top man. Seems when Win10 updates it breaks some of the default apps.
