How do I add a new screen saver to the screen saver list?

Question

I have just downloaded a new screen saver and would like to know, how do you add it to the screen saver list in the settings. I am using Windows Vista if that helps. :)

Answer 1

It needs to be installed before it can be used and seen for the desktop preferences. Did you double click the install file?

Answer 2

The file extension should be:  .scr

Either right-click on the downloaded file & select 'Install'

Or,

Drop the .scr file itself into the System32 folder.

Either way, you should be able to see the screensaver in your list then!

Have fun!
