  • Hello Joseph,

    All screensavers have to be installed before you can view them in the Screen Saver Settings panel. How a screensaver needs to be installed is different for each one. Most can be downloaded as executable files (with the .exe extension), and you can simply double-click those to start the installation process.

    If you downloaded a .zip file, please refer to the instructions on this help page: How to install a screensaver from a ZIP file

    I hope that helps. If you need further instructions, don't hesitate to let me know.
