I am using the software below:
Help & Manual 9.7.0 Build 6882 (Maintenance until Aug 11, 2025)
I own the Premium Pack Skins version 4.2.1
I am using the software: Premium Pack Toolbox 4.2.1
Question:
To use these skins with my software help files I must open each skin in H&M 9.7 and manually modify "Baggage Files", HM_HEADERBOX.html and HM_TOPICFOOTER.html to replace the ec-software name and web link with my software name and web link. Is there any way to make these changes for all the skin files are once? Will the software, Premium Pack Toolbox, do a batch change for all the skin files at once?
Can I modify all Premium Skins at one time?

Re: Can I modify all Premium Skins at one time?
Hi Pat,
You cannot edit all the skins at the same time -- and you really don't need to do that anyway since you won't ever be using all the skins. However, editing the skins in Help+Manual is also not really the right way to do it. That is what the Toolbox program is for. Please don't edit the Premium Pack skins with Help+Manual, particularly not for configuring the variables. Toolbox prevents incorrect settings and provides help for every single configuration variable.

Then you will be able to double-click on those files in the Baggage list in Toolbox to edit them.

First, follow these instructions in the documentation to configure Toolbox and set up a code editor to use with it (use the suggested free Notepad++):I must open each skin in H&M 9.7 and manually modify "Baggage Files", HM_HEADERBOX.html and HM_TOPICFOOTER.html to replace the ec-software name and web link with my software name and web link.
