WB Setup cmd-line option to NOT install included skins

from Stardock Forums
I remember back in the WB 3.x days there existed a command-line option when running the WindowBlinds installer so that it didn't install any of the included skins. I can't remember what it was and does it still exist in 5.x? I pretty much don't use ANY of the skins included with WB and hate that they get installed everytime I update my WB. I'd appreciate it if someone can provide. Thanks in advance!

Delete all the folders except WBThumb and skincast.

Nope. Problem not solved. When I've got 100 skins installed (I'm sure that's nothing compared to what other people have), and I've just installed a WB update, I don't want to have to sift through my Windowblinds directory (or skin browser) looking for all the skins I don't want that the WB installer put there. Major pain in the butt.

What I do is keep a copy of all my downloaded skins in another folder....especially because I make changes to some skins and don't want to risk having some change made to WB that might effect any changes I've made by over-writing anything. Then when I update WB I can just delete all the skins and copy my backup to the skins folder. I know it seems like a pain in the butt...but it works for me...and I don't have to sift through all the unwanted blinds that are always added each time.

hahaha, I do exactly that as well. Actually, before an install, I'd move all my skins into another folder... perform the install... delete all the installed skins, and then move mine back in.

It works, but I was hoping Neil Banfield or Brad Wardell could post with the command-line option for the installer. I remembered one of them posting it years ago on the Stardock newsgroup back in the 3.x days.
