A file... hmmm, Sounds like a Snoopsoft Dashboard skin.

Extract the .tsk file to your desktop then transfer the file to your My Documents folder on your device. Now click on Staft > Settings > Today, highlight that file in the list and click on Ok.

Just the .tsk file. Are you using winzip wizard view? Switch to winzip classic view and just extract/transfer that one file.

NEVER STOP LEARNING! :approve:

You probaby needed another app installed to take full advantage of that skin. I used to have a tricorder skin that had the Star Trek sounds including nurse Chappele as thre voice of the computer when I tried something wrong. I've gotten more streamlined since then. I only turn the volume up when I'm listening to music/movies.
I miss being young. < sighs >
