    Hi Lady Archer welcome to FG.

    If the extension does not appear on the list then one or more of the previous steps have not been followed. Make sure you zip the files back up exactly as described and that you are not using a compressed file type that FG doesn’t recognise.

    Hi Zacchaeus!

    Thank you for responding! I was able to follow the steps as described. However it appears my computer is still reading the file as a .zip even though it is named as .ext. See image below. Can you help me understand what I am doing wrong?

    Turn on the display of filename extensions. Usually under View > Options.

    Most likely your file is named "extension.ext.zip" and you need to remove the .zip from the name.

    Yes, as LE says it looks like the file has a double file extension name. Open any folder and at the top click on View and then 'show file extensions'. Go back and rezip up your file and then remove the .zip and make it .ext.

    You were right Zacchaeus and Lord Entrails! The file was named .ext.zip. I greatly appreciate your help!

    This step, oddly, is not working for me. I have changed an extension to put in a new background image (called desktop.png instead of the one that came with it), and now the theme will not even show up in FGU. It's like it doesn't exist. Maybe it's not really changing the extension in some way? I tried unzipping and then rezipping/renaming in both Mac and PC...neither seems to work.

    If you use 7zip you need to make sure that you don't use the default zip which creates a .7z filetype. Use the normal .zip when zipping with 7zip.

    So, for example, I went to change the new Dark Theme, which is "Theme_SWU_dark.ext." So I unzipped it, replaced "desktop.png" in the graphics/frames folder, zipped it back, and then renamed Theme_SWU_dark.zip to Theme_SWU_dark.ext. But now it doesn't even show up in the list of potential themes in my campaign list. Any ideas?
