  • Drag common-key.bin from the WADder directory to the C:\Documents... folder, but making sure you copy, not move (try a right-click drag).
  • Drag the WAD you created on top of the wadunpacker.exe in the WADder install folder.
  • Get the 00000001.app (approximately 6-8mb) from the wadunpack folder in the C:\Documents... folder. Rename this file to the appropriate name as above.
  • You can install this with MyMenuify to go back to the original theme.
