**Welcome Back!**
I hope this revised tutorial is more helpful for you guys. Let's get back to setting up RocketDock.
**Step 1: Unzip and Move the File**
First, you need to unzip the file that contains the skin you want to use with RocketDock. Then, go into your Program Files (or whatever drive it's on) and open up the RocketDock folder. Take the unzipped file and drag it into the Skins folder inside RocketDock.
**Step 2: Open RocketDock**
Next, go ahead and open up RocketDock. I've got all my links down here, so I'll just go ahead and open it up. And here we go! As you can see, this is with the Mac skin. It's not quite perfect yet, but that's okay.
**Customizing RocketDock**
Now, if you want to customize RocketDock a bit more, you can add lots of options, experiment with them, and get it going. It's real simple, and it's a lot of fun!
**Clearing the Desktop**
Next, let's clear up your desktop. If you want to make it really nice and clean, just move any files or anything that you don't need off the desktop. Then, go ahead and right-click on the Recycle Bin (which I'll show you in a moment) and hit "Delete". Don't worry; it won't actually delete everything!
**Customizing the Taskbar**
Now, let's talk about customizing the taskbar. If you want to get rid of any unused portion of it, just right-click on it and go down to Properties (for Vista users). For XP users, I'm not sure exactly how it would work, but something similar probably applies.
**Auto-Hiding the Taskbar**
Now, see this Auto-hide option? Go ahead and click it, hit Apply, and then exit. And that's it! We've got nothing on the screen except for our RocketDock dock, which we can open up any of our programs from.
**Customizing RocketDock Further**
You can customize RocketDock further by moving it to different parts of the screen (left, top, right), depending on how it works best for you. Just experiment and find what works best!
**Giveaway Time!**
Now, I have a bit of a mix-up with the giveaway for Not Guide promo codes. I'll go ahead and give away five promo codes for Not Guide. If you want to get in on this giveaway, just comment below "Not Guide - Your Comment". Simple as that! I might let it go until Wednesday or so.
**WWDC 2023**
Finally, don't forget to check out the Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) next time around! I'll be watching and covering any new announcements as soon as possible.
Thanks for watching this revised tutorial, and I hope it helped you set up RocketDock to your liking!
