ClockSkin Folder

Connected Finow X5Plus to win10 with USB debugging enabled and MTP. I am able to Create “ClockSkin” folder, but cannot place files in it. What am I doing wrong?

Firmware is 2015-11-01

Clockskin folder - folders which contain only png - copy the Clockskin folder to the watch.
have you done that?

So, i should copy folder and contents onto watch and not create folder on watch and then drop files into it?

yes, you should create the Clockskin folder on your pc and then copy it to your watch. btw there should be a clockskin file on the watch if there is copy the WFs folders into it and not creating a new Clockskin folder.

No ClockSkin folder in rootdir of watch. Am I looking in right place ? Where else could it be?

it should be easy to find it if you can't see it that means you do'nt have it, so create one on your pc, download the watchfaces that you want  but remember extract the zip\rar files and put into the Clockskin folder only the folders that inside the zip\rar files and not these files, the files that you put in the Clockskin folder should only contain png images.

If you mean seeing the WF you selected when you turn your wrist, i'm not sure but if you mean just to create a Clockskin folder and copy it to your watch then i'm sure it is as the x5\x5+.

Thanks Sonia for your very quick answer. To tell you the truth I mean the first leg of your answer. So you believe that I have to install eric’s amazing launcher??
