Important Notes

  • Notes related to widgets and taskbar are shared in txt file inside the zip, do read them before installing skin.

  • Sizing: DO NOT TRY TO RESIZE WIDGETS BY EDITING SKIN FILES OR VARIABLE FILES, THIS SKIN IS IN BETA AND MIGHT BREAK YOUR WIDGET.
  • Colors: This skin only works well when your pc/desktop/laptop is in dark mode. i made light and dark themes of widgets with dark mode on. There is no possibility for skin to work properly in light mode because of the plugin limitation.

Installation

  1. Install/ Update Rainmeter for Windows.

  2. Download the latest release of MD3-Windows.

  3. Double click the downloaded .rmskin file and it should open the skin install dialog.

    If you have a portable Rainmeter install, your file may not open by default by the skin installer. If so, open the .rmskin file with the SkinInstaller.exe file in the Rainmeter install directory.
